Has anyone seen it? I saw some pics the other day and it looks like it has recieved some SC430 treatment. While it's no 430 I think Toyota made a good affordable alternative, at least style wise.

Oh, I see the response to the car wasn't that good!

I read where the XM satellite radio will be available on the 2004 Solara. This is the first Toyota product I'm aware of to have that. Maybe Lexus will finally see the light and do either XM or Sirius like other premium automakers.

That would be great, but I wonder if they could retrofit it into the Mark Levinson system. Eventually, I would think Lexus would have to offer this option to remain competitive.

When the new Infiniti G35 was introduced it didn't have satellite radio, but I understand Infiniti is now retrofitting it into the original cars. The newer ones were introduced with the wiring in place.

I guess everything can be done for a price.

I also like how Infiniti is 'neutral' where you can get EITHER Sirius or XM... I like that approach myself!
