You really need to just decide whether you want a totally loaded car or not.
Debating Smart Key usefulness or need as an individual option is moot.
You don't have a "key", you have a remote with a built in key. That key is only used if the remote dies for whatever reason, you won't get locked out.
It's really handy when you've got your hands full. Especially for opening the trunk! The pushbutton-start part is just really cool.

Will soon add $287 for Sirius equipment and installation. The kit isn't available yet, but he's promised this same price when it is available. I've seen some people get charged up around $700, so this seems like a steal.
This was the original agreed upon price, but then there was some hail damage the day before we took delivery, so we worked out some additional deals, but they wouldn't normally apply.
The key slot seems to sit a bit low on the steering column to the point that the other keys on the key ring are banging into my knee. Not noticeable with long pants, but for sure when wearing shorts. The only solution I can see for this is not have the car key on a ring. Little thing, but annoying.
Once this magicial little device
"get used to it". The service manager told me the computer
has to "learn" how I drive in order for it to change to suit my style of driving. The service department did a "scan" on it and did a test drive - no problems found.
They told me this technology has been used by Toyota since 2005 and many owners have complained about it. I feel that if the dissatisfaction has been around that long, why hasn't Toyota fixed it. I traded in a 2003 Camry LE 4 cyl,
4 speed and never had any complaints of any kind with it.
I wish I still had it.
inconvenient in some ways.
P.
Good thing the spare was alloy too or I'd be the laughing stock of the neighborhood. :P
Tidewater
is that you see on the inside of a door window that comes
with each new car is . It was never there when I picked up the car from the dealer { the car had 3 miles on it } . Someone mentioned that it's federal law that the list comes with each new car .
The car is 1 week old .
Any info on this ?
Try going through the charade of ordering Smart Key without the other options predetermined for your region then wait 12 weeks for the order to be rejected.
The brochures and ordering guides list all the "potential" ways they car could possibly be optioned, but the cars are only manufactured in a limited number of configurations which are subject to change.
If they lost it, Toyota can produce another one.
The Monroney sticker — as it is called in the auto industry — is named for the late Almer Stillwell "Mike" Monroney, a senator from Oklahoma who sponsored the
federal Automobile Information Disclosure Act in 1958. This statute requires that a sticker be affixed to the side window or windshield of every new car sold in the
United States. While the law does not specifically mandate Monroney stickers for some trucks, automakers affix them across their entire vehicle lineups. Failure to display one can result in a fine of $10,000 per vehicle to the dealership.
Hi. If the option does not exist on the car, you cannot retrofit it. I cannot find any option list with memory seat / mirror on it.SorryJohn
I would post a link, but I think that is frowned upon here (links to other forums)...
The car is a RED red, not a burgundy or a maroon. I dunno about Solara, all I know is that I had a 2000 gs300 in Cinnabar Pearl and I prefer the Camry!John
I remember when "new" cars wouldn't even start! (Like my infamous '75 Rabbit when it was only 3+ months old.)
It sounds like a bowling ball rolling around in the trunk or like when you move a water bottle (water moving around, slushing back and forth)...in this care fuel bouncing around the tank.
It happens when the car start moving or when stopping.
Do you know what this could be? Is it the tank float?
Thanks,
Mary
If you want....you can also go to the Toyota website, put in your zipcode, and check inventories and features on the available cars. That will give you some idea as to whether there appears to be any cars in the regional inventory which match the features as to what you are looking for.
Good luck
Mary
Seriously.
You won't miss the noise...when you back up or stop or start driving...
Keep me posted what you find...
what needs to be done? my old car (1998 Chevy) doesn't even have this noise...kind of odd for a current car to have this noise/problem
The bag contains 2 plastic bracket like part (about 8 inches in length) and 6 screws. I can't seem to find anywhere to fit these. I seem to recall these are license plate holder, but I can't seem to figure out how it is going to work. Does anyone have a clue on what this is?
