Hey all, great community you all have here. Just thought I'd introduce myself.
Hello, My name is Ken, I am 21 years old...and I'm a Toyota-holic. I own a 2002 diamond pearl white Solara 4 banger (yea I know LOL) 5MT. I bought it used a few months back in January for about 10k + warranty. At the time it HAD 37K miles on it, now it's at 42 grand and change (and already been in TWO accidents [girlfriend drove both times...]). Perfectly stock (for now) but I'm looking to upgrade soon.
This isn't my first experience with solara's and camry's in general. My family has previously owned a 1991 Toyota Camry V6 (with 280,000 and climbing lol). Then we moved onto a 1999 Solara SE 5spd manual. That's when I decided on buying a Solara. A few years later I got my hands on my own Solara and I'm happy with it. I mean sure I would have loved a leather interior and a moonroof, but hey, it's hard enough finding a manual transmission Solara at this price (I still think the dealer ripped me off ).
Anyway...
THIS IS NOT MINE
Who's 1st gen is this? Anyone on this board? I found on it on my desktop this morning (my GF must have saved it) and the styling on it is very attractive (even more so than a stock solara). Props to the owner.
Looking forward to your responses and future interactions
