Beware the 4cyl

2007 Toyota Camry Solara SE 2dr Coupe (2.4L 4cyl 5A)

The 4cyl is a clumsy and unrefined engine that ruins an otherwise good car. Poor engine controls, driveablity, hesitates badly often and wants to stall when it is cold (warming up) leads to an unhappy driving experience. Have been back to the dealer several times and I'm told the car is operating normally, and I should drive it "more aggressively". I bought the 4 to save gas, not beat on it. Combined hwy/cty or city only mpg is worse than my old, big 6 that I traded in. Hwy mpg is ok. I've had other small issues that the dealer took care of.

I've owned many cars, but this is my first new Toyota. Given their reputation, I thought this would be a good car to get. So far, it's been a disaster. Stalled, rough engine all around (especially on warm up) and dealer finds no problems. Lugging and poor engine performance on turns and on upshift. Reset computer to no avail. There is a fix, but only for the '07 Camry that has the same problems. Not available for the Solara yet, if ever, they tell me. Severe rainwater leaks not only from cowl, but both doors as well. I've gotten used to driving loaner cars, it spent two weeks in the dealership just getting those leaks fixed. MPG on dash shows around 28 steady, actual can be as low as 19.

I got my Solara three weeks ago and I am absolutely infatuated with it! It is so much fun to drive... really quiet engine, convient controls, great JBL audio system, & lots of compliments while driving! The rise is so smooth with nice acceleration when needed!
Love it but it has some flaws!

I bought my 2007 Toyota Solara last year and absolutely loved it at first. However, after owning it for a few months (once summer hit) I started noticing a problem with the stereo/Bluetooth. Once the top has been lowered and raised, the speakers will cut out. This seems to be a common problem with this car. The other problem is the headlights. They intermittently go out and according to the forums, there is no fix and Toyota refuses to fix the problem. Otherwise I love the car. I would suggest trying to find a new model which has a timing chain instead of a timing belt. At about 125,000 miles DRL stopped working. Might just be the relay; haven't put a lot of effort into fixing. I just had to have the alternator replaced at less than 134,000 miles. 3 of the tire sensors are shot which I hear is an expensive repair. Still love the car but I would probably never buy a Toyota again. UPDATE: Changing the driver's side headlight fixed the problem but now my DRL are not working. Probably need a new bulb(s) but not sure how to determine which one and they are really expensive to replace. Also, my tire sensors are out and again, a very expensive fix. I still love my Toyota Solara but have a lot more (minor) problems with it than I did my Nissan Altima.

This car is awesome. I love the way the top goes up and down in 10 seconds! Gas mileage is great and overall the car handles very well.
