New Solara

What do you guys think?







I love the overall look of the car, but the rear is a little weak IMO. Definetly a big improvement over the old model. The 225 hp 3.3L DOHC V6 isn't too shabby either.

So Toyota is ripping off its own designs?

Anyway, I like it - it's a good look, if only for a couple more doors...

i understand the sc430 is toyota's, i'm just saying thats what it reminds me of. and now that i'm taking another look at the pics, the curves of the car almost have an old tiburon feel to them.

Not unanimous, but clearly I'm outvoted... Not like I'd ever own a 2-door anyway though...

I think it looks pretty good. An improvement over the last models styling
