The strings attached to its government sponsored loans requires General Motors to ruthlessly shed unprofitable divisions, including Saturn, Hummer, Saab, and Pontiac. The car chase scenes forever etched into movie lore have either the Pontiac Trans Am or GTO zipping around.  Who can ever forget the movies Smokey and the BanditorTwo Lane Blacktop with a raging GTO?  Also being considered for the big cut is the Pontiac Solstice. While the Solstice is a popular car, it’s not strong enough by itself to save the entire Pontiac line. If the Pontiac Solstice is no more, not only those dependent upon its assembly would feel the loss, but also those business business which also sell after market parts.

Convertible owners feel almost parental to their car. The Pontiac Solstice had a great premiere with positive editorial words and buyers ready to purchase. Upon announcement of the end of the Pontiac line, grass roots efforts already started to save this precious car . The website quickly sprang into action, calling Solstice owners into action to help save their beloved car.  Although brand new, fans are already flocking to this website, and activity will certainly pick up as the Solstice’s demise becomes near.

Unfortunately, it’s simply too early to tell what might happen. There are still a lot of gyrations left to play out in this complex business drama.  Whatever will eventually happen to the Pontiac Solstice is still an open question. While General Motors plans to put an end to Pontiac, there is an outside chance profitable product lines could live on. Keeping the Solstice going would be a great relief for the fans, the workers, and the businesses dedicated to this convertible. While this car’s fate is up in the air and it’s too soon to predict its death, no matter what, the Pontiac Solstice will always have a supported fan base.

As quick as the announcmenet of the end of Pontiac came, the online community responded to save the Solstice (see SaveTheKappa).

Seeing the Solstice on the show room floor, you’ll want to jump right in and take off. The Pontiac Solstice adds up near superhero power, plenty of options, and looks that cause people to gap open mouthed. It’s been over five decades, since the 1959 Bonneville, to find a split screen that caused so much excitement. This car challenges the BMW Z4 and Audi TT at half the price.

Option-wise, the Solstice comes in two trims, the base package and the GXP. The base package packs a 173 horse power, 2.4 liter four-cylinder engine that’s still reasonable on the gas mileage. The deluxe GPX upgrade amps the engine into a 260 horse power turbocharged engine into a 2.0 liter, four cylinder engine. Both of these engines are clamped onto the five speed manual or automatic transmission. The basic model includes electronic traction and stability control, limited slip rear differential, four anti-lock disc brakes, impressive 18 inch alloy wheels, and satellite radio. The GXP adds onto the base package, and then adds dual exhaust tips, a sport transmission, leather shift know and steering wheel, and upgraded floor mats.

There’s certainly a lot to enjoy about the Solstice, it’s certainly not a perfect car. The steering comes off as sluggish. The Solstice can be a fat hog of a car at over 3000 pounds. Also, when charging out from curves, the Solstice likes to hang on. Coming off the line, the acceleration can be a bit lethargic. This car can be an ergonomic nightmare, with components poorly located and interior parts made of third world plastics. Trunk space is smaller than your closet.

One can quibble over these minor problems, while the exterior style more than makes up for these deficiencies. Pontiac certainly isn’t known as a style leader, which the Solstice corrects. The Solstice’s styling evokes exotic images that wi ll appear in your nightly dreams. Folks will not be bashful; they will approach you and ask about your sleek car. The merits of this car decidedly weigh on the plus side. Enthusiasts contemplating a sports car should jump into this car and not look back.

Seeing the Solstice on the show room floor, you’ll want to jump right in and take off. The Pontiac Solstice adds up near superhero power, plenty of options, and looks that cause people to gap open mouthed. One needs to go back to the 1959 Bonneville to find a split screen to find another worthy Pontiac contender. This car delivers the same thrills as the BMW Z4 and Audi TT, with only half of the cost.

Option-wise, the Solstice comes in two trims, the base package and the GXP. The basic package includes a 173 horse power, 2.4 liter four-cylinder engine that’s still sips the gas. The souped-up GXP package takes 260 hour power turbocharged engine into a 2.0 liter four-cylinder engine. With either engine, it will be pair with a five speed automatic or manual transmission. The basic model includes electronic traction and stability control, limited slip rear differential, four anti-lock disc brakes, impressive 18 inch alloy wheels, and satellite radio. The GXP adds onto the base package, and then adds dual exhaust tips, a sport transmission, leather shift know and steering wheel, and upgraded floor mats.

The Solstice certainly provides much to smile at, compromised by some minor issues. The steering comes off as sluggish. The Solstice weighs in at over 3000 pounds, so this car will never be light upon its feet. Also, when zipping out from corners, the Solstice is prone to hang on. Taking off, the acceleration can be less than impressive. This car is not comfortable, with components in illogical spots and substandard parts made from third-world wages. Trunk space is very tight.

Despite the minor draw backs, the clear asset of the Solstice is its exterior style. Pontiac isn’t known for head-turning styling; with the Solstice, they finally turn the tide. The duel-hump body work of the Solstice provide a wonderfully futuristic look. People in parking lots will stop you, stare, and ask about your car. The good personality of the car certainly exceeds the minor nits. Enthusiasts contemplating a sports car should jump into this car and not look back.

Seeing the Solstice on the show room floor, you’ll want to jump right in and take off. The Pontiac Solstice combines raw power, a raft of amenities, and knock-em-over styling causing double takes. One needs to go back to the 1959 Bonneville to find a split screen to find another worthy Pontiac contender. This car is a worthy challenger to the BMW Z4 and Audi TT, with only half of the price tag.

For selections the Solstice has two options: the base package and the GXP. The basic package comes with a 173 horse power, 2.4 liter four-cylinder engine that’s still sips the gas. The power-packed GXP package places a whopping 260 hour power turbocharged engine into a 2.0 liter, four cylinder engine. No matter the engine pick, either engine is mated to a five speed auto or manual transmission. The basic model includes electronic traction and stability control, limited slip rear differential, four anti-lock disc brakes, impressive 18 inch alloy wheels, and satellite radio. If the base package isn’t enough, the GXP then adds dual exhaust tips, a faster responding transmission, leather to the steering wheel and shift knob, and plush carpeted floor mats.

The Solstice certainly provides much to smile at, compromised by some minor issues. The steering can be sloppy. The Solstice tips the scale at over 3000 pounds, so being quick-and-lite is not upon the abilities of this car. Also, when zipping out of curves, the Solstice is sticky. Starting from zero, the take-off is certainly not overwhelming. This car is not comfortable, with components in illogical spots and substandard parts made from third-world wages. Trunk space is sparse, hardly holding enough for a weekend trip.

Certainly the Solstice has some nits, which are made up for by its body style. Pontiac certainly isn’t known as a style leader, which the Solstice corrects. The Solstice’s styling evokes exotic images that will appear in your nightly dreams. Strangers will come up and strike up conversations about your Solstice. The merits of this car decidedly weigh on the plus side. Drivers in search of a top-down driving blast will not regret this selection.

One glance at the Solstice upon the show room floor, you’ll already want to jump in and zip away. The Pontiac Solstice meshes together raw power, plenty of niceties, and breath-taking styles causing people to stare. It’s been over five decades, since the 1959 Bonneville, to find a split screen that caused so much excitement. This car is a worthy challenger to the BMW Z4 and Audi TT, with only half of the price tag.

As far as options go, the Solstice is available in two different trim packages, the basic and the GXP. The basic package includes a 173 horse power, 2.4 liter four-cylinder engine that’s still sips the gas. The GPX manages to squish a punishing 260 horse power engine into a 2.0 liter, four cylinder engine. With either engine, it will be pair with a five speed automatic or manual transmission. The basic model includes electronic traction and stability control, limited slip rear differential, four anti-lock disc brakes, impressive 18 inch alloy wheels, and satellite radio. If the base package isn’t enough, the GXP then adds dual exhaust tips, a faster responding transmission, leather to the steering wheel and shift knob, and plush carpeted floor mats.

While there’s much to enjoy for the Solstice, it’s not without some draw backs. The steering comes off as sluggish. The Solstice tips the scale at over 3000 pounds, so being quick-and-lite is not upon the abilities of this car. Also, when charging out from curves, the Solstice likes to hang on. Coming off the line, the acceleration can be a bit lethargic. This car wouldn’t make a passing grade in ergonomics, with components illogically positioned and plastic components littering the interior. Trunk space is sparse, hardly holding enough for a weekend trip.

Despite the minor draw backs, the clear asset of the Solstice is its exterior style. Pontiac doesn’t have an impressive record for styling; in the Solstice, they break their bad luck streak. The Solstice has awesome styling, something from both yesterday and tomorrow. Strangers will come up and strike up conversations about your Solstice. The good personality of the car certainly exceeds the minor nits. Enthusiasts contemplating a sports car should jump into this car and not look back.
