My Solara is a manual transmission model. I had to replace the catalytic converter and ignition switch, but after doing that it runs like a beast. It has close to 180,000 miles on it now, but I do not hear any foreign sounds and it runs as smooth as ever.
Story
Before I changed out the catalytic converter, the car sounded like I had installed a loud exhaust. I always got curious looks and the occasional revving from the car next to me at a red light challenging me to a race.
Pros
My favorite feature of this car is the manual shift and the two door coupe style.
Cons
Being that it's an older car, there are some exterior eye sores. But performance trumps it all.

This vehicle has a very powerful engine and it still functions well, even though it is from 1997. Plenty of trunk and storage space makes it ideal for travel. This vehicle's maintenance is cheap and easy. The fuses are, unfortunately, old and weak and the heating system isn't functioning properly. The internal computer, as well as the sensors have issues. The interior of this car is very nice but it stains easily and is very difficult to clean. This vehicle still handles very well, though the ride is not very smooth.
Story
This vehicle is my first car. It has lasted longer than any of my girlfriends and is more reliable than all of them, save my current girlfriend, but that's only because she is sitting right here. I have driven to Washington D.C., Baltimore Aquarium and Pennsylvania to get my current girlfriend to bring her to live with me in Va. I have driven my car to a few conventions as well.
Pros
My favorite features are: - All components are original and still functioning except the lights on the dash board and console. - Plenty of leg room for all passengers in the vehicle. - Vehicle is 4 door. - The spoiler is a nice touch. - The seats are extremely comfortable and the design is easy on the back.
Cons
My least favorite features are: - Does not have leather interior. - The CD player is bulky, unnecessary and cumbersome. - Interior stains too easily. Not scotch guarded. - Holds odor for long periods of time, despite cleaners and air fresheners. - The height of the car is bad, as it lines up with the headlights of other vehicles, making it difficult to drive at night. - The seat belts get stuck often. - The gas mileage is horrible.
