Welcome to a fantastic opportunity. You are viewing an absolutely gorgeous and extremely professionally maintained 2008 Toyota Solara SE Sport Coupe. You know what they say, "the best new cars make the best pre-owned cars", and it doesn't get much better than this low mileage Solara SE. This Import Sport Coupe is sexy, sleek, extra-clean and ready to make a lucky new owner very happy. With excellent handling and a smooth ride, this Solara comes well-equipped with power seat ($390 option), air conditioning, cruise control, keyless remote entry, full power accessories, lumbar seats, a trip computer and steering wheel audio controls. Safety features include front/side-body/side-head airbags, ABS brakes and auto on/off headlights. The Solara seats up to five passengers. And this Solara also has factory fog lamps and factory security system, as well as high-power audio system with Multi-disc CD changer. Yes, this Solara SE is loaded.

Certainly the best color combination for this convertible. Magnificent Firemist Red Clearcoat exterior compliments the Medium Grey deluxe sport interior perfectly, and this SE has all the bells and whistles including Toyoguard Plus Protection Group ($699 option). Options include 8-way adjustable power driver's seat (with power lumbar), Premium JBL Audio System with 270Watts of power and 6-disc CD changer, Tire pressure monitoring system, dual power mirrors, Ellipsoid System Headlamps with Auto On/Off, daytime running lamps, rear defroster, power windows and door locks, cruise control, leather wrapped shift knob, steering wheel and parking brake, Anti-lock braking system, 4-wheel disc brakes, 16-inch factory aluminum/alloy wheels, factory color-keyed rear lip spoiler, keyless remote entry, factory security system and so much more!
The medium grey cloth interior exudes style in what is considered by many one of the world's most reliable performance Import Coupes. This one get looks and stares everywhere because of its condition, and especially color!!--and is an absolute pleasure to drive. 

With only 49,000 original sunny, fair-weather miles, this Solara SE is in outstanding condition.  The sleek exterior is in excellent condition. No unsightly parking lot door dings or dents, scuffs or scratches and the finish is spectacular. Extra-clean is the best way to describe it. It was a garaged vehicle. The front bumper has a few very minor scratches (see close up photo), but they are minor and certainly considered less than consistent for a 2008 model. The interior is equally as nice. Extra-clean is the best way to describe it, and this vehicle was owned by a non-smoker. Neither the ashtray, nor the cigarette lighter have ever been used.  Equipped with a rear defroster, for those of you in not-so-fair-weather climates! To be completely honest, this is a wonderful car. It runs and drives like new, and with only 49,321 original miles (that's less than 8,000 miles per year folks!) this Toyota is just getting broken in. You routinely see Camry's go well into the 200,000 mile range. and with good reason, this is one of the best-built and most reliable vehicles manufactured in the world.

This Florida-kept Sport coupe accelerates quickly and drives just as smoothly. Equipped with a peppy 155hp 2.4 liter, dual overhead cam, 16 valve engine, matched with a 5-speed ECT-Sequential Automatic transmission, this SE performs great, while still achieving upwards of 36 mpg highway. Only 49,000 original miles folks!!! It was a well-maintained vehicle and we have all the original Books and Manuals, the original window sticker, factory carpeted floor mats, cargo net, first aide kit, emergency assistance kit and so much more! How's that for complete! We have the original window sticker and the cost of this Solara SE Sport Coupe was $22,785

2015 Toyota Camry priced at $22,970*, Hybrid at $26,790*

Tue, 02 Sep 2014

We last saw the heavily revised 2015 Toyota Camry at the New York Auto Show earlier this year. Now, it's finally time for the best-selling car in the US to hit the roads in late September, and Toyota is announcing how much the updated model actually costs.
The basic Camry LE rings up for $22,970 (*not including a $825 delivery, processing and handling fee). That's up slightly from the base price of $22,425 for the 2014.5 LE, but the updated sedan has some 2,000 new parts, while also being 1.8 inches longer and boasting a 0.4-inch wider track. The rest of the trim levels include the SE for $23,840, sporty new XSE for $26,150 and XLE at $26,150. Opting for the V6 is the XSE and XLE bumps pricing to $31,370.
Separately, the Camry Hybrid gets its own LE, SE and XLE trims. The LE starts at $26,790 with a standard, power driver's seat and 4.2-inch information display. The SE for $27,995 gets an improved interior and the XLE at $29,980 has leather, heated front seats, LED running lights and more.

Automakers not currently promoting EVs are probably doomed

Mon, Feb 22 2016

Okay, let's be honest. The sky isn't falling – gas prices are. In fact, some experts say that prices at the pump will remain depressed for the next decade. Consumers have flocked to SUVs and CUVs, reversing the upward trend in US fuel economy seen over the last several years. A sudden push into electric vehicles seems ridiculous when gas guzzlers are selling so well. Make hay while the sun shines, right? A quick glance at some facts and figures provides evidence that the automakers currently doubling down on internal combustion probably have some rocky years ahead of them. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is a prime example of a volume manufacturer devoted to incremental gains for existing powertrains. Though FCA will kill off some of its more fuel-efficient models, part of its business plan involves replacing four- and five-speed transmissions with eight- and nine-speed units, yielding a fuel efficiency boost in the vicinity of ten percent over the next few years. Recent developments by battery startups have led some to suggest that efficiency and capacity could increase by over 100 percent in the same time. Research and development budgets paint a grim picture for old guard companies like Fiat Chrysler: In 2014, FCA spent about $1,026 per car sold on R&D, compared with about $24,783 per car sold for Tesla. To be fair, FCA can't be expected to match Tesla's efforts when its entry-level cars list for little more than half that much. But even more so than R&D, the area in which newcomers like Tesla have the industry licked is infrastructure. We often forget that our vehicles are mostly useless metal boxes without access to the network of fueling stations that keep them rolling. While EVs can always be plugged in at home, their proliferation depends on a similar network of charging stations that can allow for prolonged travel. Tesla already has 597 of its 480-volt Superchargers installed worldwide, and that figure will continue to rise. Porsche has also proposed a new 800-volt "Turbo Charging Station" to support the production version of its Mission E concept, and perhaps other VW Auto Group vehicles. As EVs grow in popularity, investment in these proprietary networks will pay off — who would buy a Chevy if the gas stations served only Ford owners? If anyone missed the importance of infrastructure, it's Toyota.
