2002 Toyota Camry Solara
Convertible
The new 2002 Toyota Camry
offer us four classy sedans and three sporty coupes,
but three sexy convertibles are available as well. Here,
we report on the features of the 2002 Camry Solara SE
Convertible, Camry Solara SE V6 Convertible, and the
2002 Camry Solara SLE Convertible.
With a seating capacity
of four passengers, the two-door 2002 Toyota Camry Solara
SE Convertible is a more practical choice than some
of the other convertibles on the market that only fit
two passengers. For extra versatility, the rear seat
folds down to accommodate groceries or luggage.
Standard comforts on
the Solara include cruise/speed control, power door
locks, dual power mirrors, and power windows. Air conditioning
is also a standard feature, although with the power
retractable fabric convertible top you might not need
it too often!
Also included with the
2002 Toyota Camry Solara SE Convertible are a terrific
6-speaker AM/FM stereo with CD player and important
little details like steering wheel scope/tilt and a
remote trunk release. A rear spoiler tops it all off
with a sporty look, and a keyless entry system is available
as a package.
Safety features in the
2002 Toyota Camry Solara SE Convertible list a driver
side air bag, passenger side air bag, and both front
and rear head restraint as standards. Front fog lights
are also included, ensuring safe navigation through
areas with poor visibility. ABS brakes and side impact
air bags are key options that are available to you.
Under the hood, the two-wheel
front drive Toyota Camry Solara SE Convertible has a
2.4-litre four-cylinder engine with DOHC, 157 horsepower,
and 163 (lbs/ft) @ 4000 rpm of torque. Fuel is delivered
via a sequential port fuel injection system, and each
vehicle is fitted with all-season SBR tires.
The fuel economy rating
is calculated to be approximately 23/30 (city/hwy).
One thing we do find interesting is that this entry-level
model (as well as the subsequent higher models) comes
equipped with four-speed automatic transmission instead
of manual transmission. For some, this may reduce the
“fun factor” of driving a sporty vehicle,
but it is certainly a practical feature for the majority
of average drivers who prefer automatic transmission.
Bearing this in mind, if we combine the many features
and advantages of Toyota's SE Convertible, it is a remarkably
excellent choice for those who not only want a sport
vehicle but require sensibility as well.

The SE V6 takes the base
package and adds to it an upgrade in performance, replacing
the specs with a 3.0-litre six-cylinder engine that
pumps out 192 horsepower and 207 (lbs/ft) @ 4400 rpm
of torque for a truly responsive ride. ABS brakes have
been added as a standard feature for maximum control
while braking suddenly. Fuel economy checks in at 19/26
(city/hwy).
Base invoice price: $25,239
Base list price: $28,045
Finishing off the Toyota
line up in luxury is the SLE V6 Convertible, also boasting
a 3.0-litre six-cylinder engine and subsequently increased
capabilities. In addition to the thorough safety standards
and ABS brakes, you have the important option of adding
traction control to the package. Further Toyota standards
such as a keyless entry system and theft deterrent system
lend both convenience and peace of mind.
