introductions
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is William, and I live in Minneapolis. I decided to join this group because September of last year, my car of 3 years before, a 1995 Camry V6XLE, was totaled in an accident. I vowed to find a car with the same engine, and I started to look at the Solara. 1 month later, I bought a 2000 SE V6, with a 5-speed manual, and I LOVE THIS CAR!!
When I owned the Camry, I always thought of how better it could be with a stick transmission, and I didn't know the Solara offered one at that time, I thought it was simply a 2-door Camry compatriot. Of course, now I know better!
I am not very rich, and frankly, my bills come before my car, so I haven't done much to it yet. However, I do ALL REPAIRS AND MAINTENENCE MYSELF (that is, what one can do outside with only needing to lift one end of the car), and look forward to fixing the Solara up nicely.
So far, I have only put in an Injen ram air intake, and fiddled with the ACIS system so far as the engine is concerned. I also have put silver taillights and clear corners on the front. If anyone is interested in pictures of either the old Camry or the Solara, let me know. Thanks!
