About Toyota Solara
The second generation Camry Solara was totally redesigned (design approval was granted in 2001; JPO patent number 1218292) and debuted to the market in August 2003 for the 2004 model year. It featured a curvier body with an option for XM radio and/or navigation. The Gen 2 body, which is based on the 2002 Camry sedan’s basis, is heavier than the Gen 1.5 body. The four-cylinder engine was carried over from the previous generation, while the optional 3.3 L V6 engine produced 225 net horsepower (168 kW) at 5,600 rpm and 240 lb-ft (325 Nm) of torque at 3,600 rpm. The four-cylinder engine was available with either a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic transmission, whilst the V6 engine was only available with the five-speed U151E automatic transmission. Both engines incorporated Toyota’s variable valve timing (VVT-i) technology.
For the second generation of the Solara, Toyota Motor Manufacturing Kentucky was chosen. Production of the coupe began in July 2003 while the convertible began in February 2004. The convertible was available exclusively with a 3.3-liter V-6 engine and a 5-speed MMT automatic transmission. Rather than being derived from the coupe, as the first-generation car was, Toyota said that the second-generation convertible was specifically developed and built as such, with a more solid body structure to reduce noise and vibration.
