About Toyota Solara

The Solara moved to Toyota Motor Manufacturing Kentucky for the second generation model.
Production started in July 2003 for the coupe and February 2004 for the convertible.
The convertible was offered only with the 3.3 liter V-6 and the 5-speed MMT automatic transmission.
From model year 2005 to 2008, sales fell from roughly 50,000 units annually to just over 20,000.
After the 2008 model year, the coupe was discontinued due to faltering sales, but the convertible, which accounted for the majority of units sold, continued to be produced.
