So i'm new here, and the my solara is my first car. I'm 17 and in houston, tx.

my solara is a 2004 sport se, so it's the 3mz-fe engine blah blah blah. I think it's pretty nice for a first car, no? I've actually been on solaraguy for a while, i used it to research acceleration lag problems and i pretty much know what i need to know about the 2nd gen.
