Sports fans are more likely to enjoy the Toyota Solara, which is a mid-size convertible manufactured by the world’s largest automaker. Designed and engineered for sporty drivers, let’s see how the name Toyota Solara came about. This model is sometimes referred to as the Toyota Camry Solara. The term “Camry” refers to the line of vehicles where it belongs to, while “Solara” means radiance of the sun.

The estimated time for this convertible’s power top to be raised and lowered is ten seconds. The cover also matches the color of the insides of the car. What’s lacking in the Toyota Solara are the other high-end features that you would expect in a convertible, like stability control and a navigation system. The latest models of the Toyota Solara are the convertible and coupe types.

The Toyota Solara can very well compete with other car brands because of the smooth engine transmission and outstanding design.

Toyota Motors has presented one of the best cars in the history of car models since the 1980s in the form of the Toyota Supra. It was manufactured and produced from the year 1979 up to 2002. The 1st and 2nd Generation models of this best selling model were derived from the Celica model but it was longer and wider in size and in shape. Its third generation finally became independent of the Celica, completely separating the two. Because of the similarity of the two, most car enthusiasts frequently mistake the Celica model with the Supra model and vice-versa.

Price range for Toyota Supra: depending on model year and overall condition, anywhere from $3000 to $49,000
Estimated MPG for Toyota Supra: about 15 City/22 Hwy
Available Trims: Premier, Turbo, SE

Currently, the Toyota Supra has four generation models. All of these models have the “inline” six cylinder engines, tracing its roots back to the Toyota 2000GT engine. Together with the Toyota Logo, the Toyota Supra has its very own logo until the year 1991 when Toyota introduced its current oval shaped company logo. This model has ceased any form of sale in the United States as of the year 1999 and the Toyota Company officially stopped its production in 2002.

The Toyota Supra has undergone huge changes since its inauguration in the late part of 1979. The latest generation or the fourth generation model featured a well rounded body style and two engines. The first was the natural 2JZ-GE engine that can produce a whopping 220 horse power. The second was the twin turbo-charged 2JZ-GTE that can make a tremendous amount of 280 horsepower that largely surpasses the first engine. It is one of the best selling car models that Toyota has made so far.

The Audi 100 is a mid-sized car manufactured between 1968 and 1994, and was marketed in those years in four variants: C1, C2, C3 and C4.

The development of Audi 100 was a secret to the top management of Volkswagen (which acquired Audi maker Auto Union from Mercedes Benz in 1965) which was then heavily focused on the production of its highly successful Beetle model. With the Volkswagen management finally convinced of the merits of Audi 100, the car was launched as the first water-cooled, front-engined Audi.

Originally, its name denoted a 100 PS (99 hp/74kW) engine. The C1 has several variants, namely the two- and four-door saloons and stylish coupes. The C2, introduced in 1976, featured a five-cylinder engine and crisper styling. This generation included a five-door hatchback model (100 Avant). The C3, with an aerodynamic design resulting in fuel efficiency, debuted in 1982 and was named Europe’s Car of the Year in 1983. The C4, introduced in 1991, featured a 2.8L, 90-degree, SOCH, 12v, V6 engine.
