Just saw some pictures of this from the NAIAS, and man, just wanted to say, what a hot little ride!

franknbeans · 01-13-2009, 06:26 PM

wife wants to know if there was a price on that babby.??

BowtieGuy · 01-13-2009, 06:49 PM

Probably around the same price as a new convertible top version. Around 29k-35k. I am so in love with this car.

Mr_Draco · 01-13-2009, 10:06 PM

But it still has that butt ugly front end.

If you put some color-matched vinyl over the top of the headlight to make it less angular, it would emphasize the shape of the round headlight housing. That would look cool. Can someone make a photo-edit of this?

The coupes are so cool looking, but the hp sucks

CaptianSam · 01-13-2009, 10:58 PM

I was completely utterly in love with the rear of the GXP coupe at the Memphis Auto Show this year,the Solstice looks incredible as a Coupe......but,the interior is awful,just awful,i drive a Mustang and i think the Solstice interior is bad,that's pretty bad. The Sky is alot better.Also,every year-old used Solstice i've sat in,the seats feel completely worn out. Has anyone else noticed this??
I think the poor Solstice has it bad on both ends. The Miata at the lower-priced end and the 370Z on the other end. The GXP looks pretty bad coming out on the heels of the Nissan.

Not diggin the fastback look. Oh well. Hopefully going with a coupe will shave 100 lbs and stiffen it up making it an even faster little car.
