I have had my SLE for almost 5 years now and I am about to roll over 200,000 miles. I have had a few minor issues with the car but overall it has been an excellent car. The CV joint boot split and ran dry and I had to replace the axle twice. The first time it was still under warranty, and the second time was around 160,000 miles. Smooth ride, good gas mileage for a V6 (27-29 mpg on highway depending on how heavy my foot is!!) and plenty of get up and go. Runs like new!! I would recommend this car to anyone who drives a lot and plans to keep the car for a long time.
Nice...

This is my second car (previously owned an integra) and i love it. It's not only nicer but faster than the integra i previously owned. I'm currently in the process of adding performance parts to it. I have nothing to regret about buying this car.

Love this car! It drives likes a Lexus. I have owned the 1999 Solara SLE V6 since it was new. I have had few problems with it in the 11 years. Get the leather in this car! It is unbelievably comfortable. I would love to drive a Prius for the gas mileage but I'm keeping my classic as long as I can.
The Solara is dead!! I know longer have this car.

I purchase a 1999 Toyota Solara SE V6 5-speed. Although it was advertised as available I couldn't find one. So I wrote Toyota headquarters and they actually built one for me with the sunroof, bose system, lumbar seats and a dark gray interior color, (whereas the normal interior color is tan, to go with the dark blue exterior of that year). I loved that car and drove it from mile 3 to mile 297495, when an elderly lady ran into me and totaled it, December 18th, 2016. Some rescuers were confused when I said, "no my baby is gone". It took them a second to understand in my delusion and pain, that I was talking about my Solara. Reliability was phenomenal. Primarily timely oil changes every 3500 miles, didn't need a new clutch until I surpassed 235,000 miles. Other than brakes and other type wear items, it was virtually maintenance free. The interior was immaculate with little noticeable wear, the AC blew ice cold. When the woman hit me and spun me around like a top, the car slid, but never turned over. More than that, the engine was still turning with a chugging sound as if to say, "hey what happened buddy, let's get going". Those 17 years airbags and the pre-tensioner in the seat belt did their job. I'm alive to type this. I saw it days later at the tow yard, I could only cry, just cry. I had intended to beat the mileage record of my 1990 Honda, which was 307,000 miles. But we didn't get there. The worse thing I can't find a V6 5-speed Solara anywhere in the internet search. Even if I did, I would feel like a traitor because 'blueberry', that's what I called her, would be so mad at me, for even dating (I mean driving) another car. I miss her so much. :-(

This car is amazing it holds up extremly well, has an amazing build quality and it has so much structual rigidity. I got into a 35mph rear end collision with my car and there is only a penny sized paint scratch on the bumper. this car is so awesome!!!
