2005 Toyota Solara Convertible review from North America
"Great value for the money. Love it!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Windows leaked.
Passenger door hinge locked up.
Rear window defroster did not defrost.
Stereo sound (on AM/FM radio and on CD) cuts in and out after use of convertible top.
Hesitated on increasing speed.
General comments?
I absolutely love driving this car.
I love having a convertible and am very pleased with it overall.
I would like the passenger seat to have a "memory" to make it easier for my passengers to get and out, and get the car seat readjusted each time.
Very quick.
Many blind spots; however, in comparison to other manufacturers, it looks to be about the same.
