What Owners are Saying About the 2001 Toyota Solara

"A Lifetime Car"

"Received my Solara from a relative who did regular maintenance on it. Clutch is the biggest thing that's been replaced however, that's to expect. Even with the miles that are on it, I would drive it across country and back without hesitating. We actually used this car to go to the mountains because our 2014 Dodge Journey could not handle the hills! Perform regular maintenance on this vehicle and it will be the last car you'll have to buy."

"Long Lasting"

"Bought in 2000 with 23000 miles. Hve never had a problem at 95,000. Still powerful and beyond reliable. Would not take triple the current price value, just keep it for another 5 or 10 yrs."

"Great car!"

"Had Toyota vehicles for years. Just like a Camry in reliability except has cool styling. Easier to see out of than the 2004-2008 Solara model. The V-6 has great pick-up & the leather seats are same as in a Lexus. Only complaint is lack of a center armrest in rear seat."
