Tons of Solstice's (Solstii?) and Sky's at SEMA this year. They're a hot car for sure, look great when modded! Too bad they're GMs. Check out the forums....cheap interior, faulty diffs.......when will they learn???

I'd prefer the Sky with that motor. The LS7, that's a Z06 motor isn't it?

It's a nice looking car but the Pontiac emblem makes it look cheap.

that thing must really fly...anyone know the curbweight on those things? looks light... but yeah...holy power to weight ratio batman!

and i dont mind the looks at all... in other words, yes, i would drive that proudly, but only with an ls7 in it... i cant really appreciate that car in its stock form

this was a limited edition i believe. I was curious to see what a solstice would go for in the autotrader and i saw one for 64K.. i thought it was a misprint, but it was a limited production with the corvette engine. I bet if flies!! cant be too much weight to it.

Very true.. i read the Miata vs Solstice article in the new Motor Trend or Car and Driver can't remember.. it not only spanked it on the road but in the money section as well.. about 2 grand more with a way better warranty..

not really a pontiac fan or modern domestic fan myself at all i find their vehicles very cheap

It looks like an s2000 and an MR2 had a retarded child.... for that reason... I would not drive it..... but the power is pretty intense.... just not my style...

what about GTX version it comes with turbo. lots of room to play with it. I personally like it cause its a lot cheaper than s2k but same roadster. i love open top driving. And dont forget that GM and Toyota are working together you you get some japanise quality in that engine. its a basic vvti engine renamed ecotec.
