I can’t sleep. Have an incredibly intricate headlight, and an artsy tail light pic.

Is the first one from a Camry Solara convertible? Reliable cars, sure, but definitely not performers.....always liked the look of them though! They’ve always looked....how do I put this.....somewhat boring, but still ‘slick’ if that makes sense...? There are only one or two around here that I see once in awhile, but they are DDs for their owners.

Not the convertible but yeah, it’s a 2004 V6. It’s mine.
The looks definitely take som getting used to, I still dont care for the rear of the car but I like the front half. It’s extremely reliable, and very low maintenance. Rides very smooth and Is a great road trip car. Performance is uninspired, even soul sucking. That’s not to say you can’t hustle it along, it will happily let maintain very high speeds even on twisty roads but, there is no incentive to do so as the inputs are all deadened. Electronic throttle, lifeless steering, no road feel through the suspension. While it’s not a drivers car it’s the perfect car for me right now, going to college on a shoe string budget, and needing something super reliable. Definitely a road trip car though, able to maintain pretty high speeds without much mpg loss. Did a 500 mile trip to South Carolina and didn’t feel sore at all.

Sounds like all big Toyotas - not the most driver focused, but damned reliable and comfy! :)
