Talk:Toyota Camry Solara

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Horsepower?

Can somebody please explain why the 3.3L DOHC V6 in the Toyota Camry is 210 hp while the same engine in the Camry Solara is 225 hp? Why is this not effected by the new SAE changes? CJ DUB 22:13, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

Since the Solara has been noted to be "sportier" than the Camry, the engine is often always tuned to be more powerful than the Camry, except in the case of the 2007 year models, where the Camry received a different engine that is 39 hp (29kW) more than the Solara.

[edit] Possible image problem

I mentioned this on the talk page of the image in question and its uploader a week ago to no response, and because I didn't find a Possible Unfree Images page on the Commons, I'm bringing it up here:

I saw the same image in a Toyota advertisement, suggesting that it is probably not in fact owned by scionlife.com but by Toyota. That would make scionlife's permission useless, as they would not be the owners of the picture. This should be checked into. This article's other images should also be checked.

Can anyone verify that scionlife.com is or isn't the actual owner of the images illustrating this article? IFCAR 01:22, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

Sorry for the long delay between responses; I didn't receive a private message, e-mail or equivalent that has brought the issue to my attention. I obtained permission from the owner of the website, Darren before using any of the images, which an excerpt of the e-mail is here as follows:

You may use the images, but if you can attribute them to the site I would appreciate it. If not, that is OK.

Is there a copyright policy? I plan on updating the Solara’s Wikipedia entry, and I am going to use images based on your website’s paint code chart (esp. if the current Wikipedia entry for the Gen1.5 has a huge dent on the side). Thank you!

The image is also hosted at ScionLife.com's Paint Code Chart (specific link:[1], all other pictures are at [2]), but files in use are actually hosted on Wikipedia Commons to avoid hotlinking.
