The Camry outsells other midsize cars in America largely because of Toyota's reputation for quality, durability and reliability. It's the perfect transportation appliance, flawlessly performing its duties, never annoying its owner. Its soft suspension smoothes out beat-up city streets. The interior is ergonomically excellent, with big climate and audio knobs that are easy to adjust, and the seats are comfortable.

An all-new Camry will be introduced for the 2007 model year. So, depending on supply and demand, it's possible that there could be deals on 2006 models as dealers sell down their inventory of the outgoing design. That's not the case with the Solara, however, as it's not expected to change for 2007. The Camry was freshened for 2005 and carries over with no significant changes for 2006. The same is true of Solara: no changes for 2006.

The Solara is essentially a two-door version of the Camry that's available in coupe and convertible body styles. Buyers who want a reliable convertible built to high quality standards should seriously consider the Solara. The Solara convertible puts the wind in your hair and brings a ray of sunshine into your life. If you want a swoopy two-door coupe, the Solara is a safe, smart choice. The Solara coupe implies a sportier lifestyle while featuring the practicality of a truly useful rear seat. The Solara models were all-new for 2004 and are unchanged for 2006.
