wotariot
This is the perfect vehicle to be used for exactly the target of its designers & engineers. A weekend fun car. Not a long distance tourer (trust me, I drove round trip from the Detroit area to Orlando - NOT recommended), not a daily commuter in the Rust Belt.) But for a top down weekend get-away, it's GREAT.
It's so cute!
I just love this car! I just turned 40 and this car is turning heads daily! Someone stops me to ask about it all the time. Nobody knows what it is; a Porsche, BMW, Jag? It looks much more expensive than it is. Love the styling, the way the interior just wraps around you and the when the top is down I'm in heaven! My husband is so jealous, but hey, he has his Harley, and now I have mine! Hair in the wind, seats two and has just about as much cargo space! It is so much fun to drive! My only complaint is the lack of trunk space, but that hasn't stopped me from Costco runs! You'd be surprised how much it can actually hold! To sum it up, GREAT car, much better than the Miata!

Fun to drive car
The Pontiac solstice should never be thought of as a daily driver! It is a fun to drive car! It has very little storage space and space is confined in the cockpit. I bought it to replace the motorcycle I gave up! And it has replaced it well! It doesn't have very good straight away speed but it corners like it's on rails! Something I was looking for! Gas mileage is about the same as as large cc motorcycle but you have a fantastic stereo system, heating and cooling as well as cruise control! I would suggest buying one of these as opposed to a motorcycle!
Vroom Vroom
I got my Solstice in January 06, just after my daughter turned 21 years old. Now, it's just me and the Chihuahuas. Such a fun, fun car to drive. Heads turn all over the place, especially with the top down. Love the sound that she makes. A neighbor once asked if I had made modifications. Nope I told him, she just purrs like that. Vroom, vroom.
Two years and love my Solstice
Great car to drive. Most reviews I've read are on manual transmissions. I ordered an Automatic, hey! I'm getting on in years and manuals are just to difficult for these tired broken limbs. Anyway, I had to wait almost six months for it to come into the dealers. Well worth the wait. I love the sports car feel, it's like you can feel the weather lines that run horizontally across the pavement or the lines where the concrete pieces in the road come together.
