When did the GMC solstice go on sale?
When the Solstice went on sale in the fall of 2005, it was the first production vehicle on GM’s Kappa architecture. Equipped with a 2.4-liter Ecotec four-cylinder engine featuring variable valve timing, the Solstice is manufactured in Wilmington, Del. A high-output GXP version debuts for 2007.
What’s the new body color for the Pontiac Solstice?
“Mean,” which is Pontiac-speak for yellow, is a new body color, and the Solstice’s cloth convertible top can be had in tan. According to Pontiac, designers sought to preserve the “clean lines and taut proportions” of the concept when creating the production version.
Launching the Solstice roadster for 2006 filled that gap. A true sports car, the rear-wheel-drive Solstice two-seater initially came only with a relatively mild powerplant. A performance-oriented GXP roadster has joined for 2007, ready to unleash 260 turbocharged horses from its direct-injection four-cylinder engine.
What’s the price of a 2007 Pontiac Solstice?
In GXP form the Solstice roadster has a Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of $27,115. That’s $5,000 more than the price of a base-model Solstice.
How big is the trunk space in a Pontiac Solstice?
Front and rear fascia extensions add to the GXP’s bold appearance, and highly-polished stainless-steel dual exhaust outlets release the turbo’s gases. Cargo volume is 5.4 cubic feet with the top up, but trunk space isn’t conventionally, or conveniently, shaped.
Is the Pontiac Solstice good for long trips?
The Solstice was a great start and had Pontiac continued in business it would have been as refined as the Miata. The comfort level for both driver and passenger is not high and for that reason we do not take it on long trips. The trunk is tiny and on spare can be a problem so keep good tires on it.
