The auto trans car was notably faster than the 5 speed manual cars.
None were GXP due to my "now confirmed" concerns about the longevity of turbo charged cars... especially from GM.
I miss the solstice...
Nice car...
Traded the '08 in for the camaro...
Never had any mechanical issues with any of the solstice...but the camaro is definitely a substantial upgrade in build quality. And despite being a thousand pounds heavier and almost twice the horsepower, camaro still gets 10-12 MPG more than the solstice. Nice.
