2006 Toyota Camry Solara Preview summaryImage

The 2006 Camry Solara remains mostly unchanged from the 2005 model, when it was completely redesigned. The Solara is made for Camry drivers who are looking for something a little more fun, and the handling will feel familiar to Camry owners. The Solara looks much sleeker than the Camry sedan, with a sporty dashboard and aerodynamic body.

The 2006 Camry Solara is available as a two-door coupe and a convertible in the SE and SLE trim levels. The SLE coupe offers extras such as heated mirrors and a moon roof. Upgrading to the SLE convertible gets you heated leather seats. The coupe is also available in an additional trim, the SE Sport, which includes a spoiler, sport suspension and 17" wheels.

The Camry Solara convertible receives high praise for its roomy backseat, but users complain that it is difficult to get into. Other complaints include a significant right-rear blind spot and low visibility out the rear window.

Been searching on car gurus for over a year. Finally found the exact car that I was looking for. My new car is immaculate. Not a scratch on it. Mechanically sound, and just perfect. What a great experience!Jun 06, 2023
