  A little hard to get in/out (5"10, 190 lbs) but for sure worth the effort...really fun and a head turner.

  A great little car! - 2007 Pontiac Solstice
  By LuvMySol - December 28 - 3:33 pm

  I just purchased my GXP after waiting over one year on my dealers wait list. I never thought I could ever feel this way about a car, but I am in love with my Solstice! It is everything I had been expecting it to be and more! This is the first time in my life that something that I had been anticipating with so much excitement turned out much, much better than in my wildest dreams. My wife, who never gave much thought about car, just loves this car too! The Solstices looks are awesome, and its mechanics seem equal. It is hard for me to believe that this is an American designed and built car, but it is! No trunk? Who cares!

  Soltice is Superb - 2007 Pontiac Solstice
  By Roadster 4 50 years - November 18 - 12:36 pm

  Vehicle is everything I expected. Driving position is perfect, There are no comfort cupholder or storage issues for us that critics write about. There is plenty of storage room for creative people. This is "A ROADSTER" not an SUV. Handling is better than cars costing double and triple- and I own such cars. Instrumentation is excellent and engine maintenance the easiest on any car Ive ever owned, and I still own 18 vehicles, 7 of which are classic vintage British Sports and GT cars. I recommend this car to Anyone interested in fun . It has Flash WITH substance and delivers great smooth and quick (for its class) automatic performance at a reasonable price.

  Had the car since summer - 2007 Pontiac Solstice
  By Boomster - August 30 - 5:06 am

  Havent had any issues with the car at all. It drives like a dream, and its just as fun to drive as a Corvette. Hugs the road and you feel like you have total control. Probably why its won so many professional drifting events in the past. Nothing like the top being down. Great stereo system if you have the Monsoon upgrade. The subwoofer really shakes the passenger, lol Great pick up and go for the regular trim style. Would love to drive the GXP to see the difference. But it should make most people happy with its power. I can definitely pass most cars with ease if I need to.

  2007 Solstice GXP - 2007 Pontiac Solstice
  By tr6jag - March 16 - 5:16 pm

  After 900 miles on the Solstice, it is a fantastic driver. The handling is awesome, the performance is fantastic, and the build quality is beyond my expectations. I purchased it not as a daily driver but to replace a 69 Triumph TR6 I should have never sold. Regardless, the Solstice is heads above any 2 seater I have researched and driven. Its great to have no oil spots on the garage floor! Too bad the weather hasnt been better here in VA to enjoy the Solstice more. There have been no mechanical or negative issues with this Pontiac since I have owned it.

  Perfectly Impractical - 2007 Pontiac Solstice
  By Atlantiswaites - March 12 - 2:00 am

  This car is great for someone who just plain likes to drive. This is not for someone who wants a super smooth Cadillac ride, but wants to have a little bitty car, with a lot of performance. Even though the editors review of the car talked about lack of performance with the base Solstice, I like it. I know I would have a lot of issues with grip on the road if I had that GXP (thanks to my lead foot) so I actually like this one. GREAT to drive.

  Vs. MIata - 2007 Pontiac Solstice
  By Doc - October 12 - 2:36 am

  As a Miata owner for the last 15 years, I can say this is more car for the money, however there are some quality issues with some of part fitting, although minor and probably hard to notice, I was used to the perfection in the fit of the Miata. The good news is this rides like a much bigger car, and is more fun to drive than the Miata.

  ITS A SPORTSCAR NOT A LUXURY FAMILY CAR - 2007 Pontiac Solstice
  By hurricane43 - September 19 - 12:31 pm

  This is a sportscar made for fun not a luxuary car designed for ultimate comfort and convenience. If you want to really get out and enjoy driving a fun car and turn heads this is the car to have. It is reminicent of the 53 corvette with the front end design. It is a blast to drive and has performed very well in the 2 years my wife has had it. I bought it for her approx. 2 years ago and it had 18,000 miles on it and now has 36,000 miles and the only service has been oil changes and replaced tail light bulb(warranty covered that) and replaced a plastic clip on the top that enabled it to close all the way. We both love this car and enjoy getting out with the top down and hitting the road.

  First Impressions- short ownership - 2007 Pontiac Solstice
  By Don Adams - August 16 - 1:36 am

  We have only owned vehicle for a very short time, but extremely impressed with ride quality for such a small, short wheelbased vehicle. Having owned GM full size & luxury Models all my life , this is a pleasant surprise-- Handling and cornering are equally impressive- vehicle feels like its on rails during sharp, quick cornering. Overall visibility and ease of manual top operation are great. My wife absolutely loves this car and is making it her daily driver.

  Some of your judgement is bogus - 2007 Pontiac Solstice
  By jim - July 12 - 12:00 pm

  Like the 50s great English cars. As a average driver it is an excellent car in 90 % of my usage. I dont need cornering or any sort of road feed back, I do that with my eyes and feel. I love this machine. I have 7180 miles and still having fun.
