Used 2007 Pontiac Solstice Consumer Reviews
best car ever
I love my new solstice...I have only one regret and that is that I live in MI and I bought my car in Sept. instead of April...Pontiac did everything right with this car my car is loaded so the stereo and leather put me in a wonderful state of mind..I like to call it my therapy- would recommend to all!!! I only buy GM and have a Bravada for winter so I am all set.
Solstice
Have been driving for the past 11 months and love it. Really turns heads when you drive down the road, top up or down! Handles beautifully but not happy with shift from 2nd to third. Only wish I had waited until the turbo came out.

Fun, Fun and YES Even Practical
BMW, Mazda, Mercedes - you have a lot to learn...drove them first..BIGGEST disappointment-BMW...ugly & NO FUN.. buy one as a coffin maybe. Anyway..the Solstice is what a Roadster is supposed to be at a price that is right on. I got it loaded with the upgraded stereo - I like to say "I have a pair of driveable headphones" !! Just awesome stereo. Comfortable to drive, rips around any offramp - zoom zoom this...tried that with the Miata - almost wound up dead! Tonight I went to the post office picked up 3 boxes size of a briefcase cubed, went to the market - $140 groceries and I had room to store it all. Used front seat of course, but I never have problem putting stuff in the trunk. It's a HIT!
Sad to say, but a bit of a disappointment
The car is a great looking sports car. Possibly the best on the market. But looks are deceiving. It lacks in power and interior design. The radio and XM are wonderful. The two toned interior is beautiful but I'd lose the cheap plastic. As far as power, it's a dud. The exterior design is gorgeous but not practical when driving. There are too many blind spots which is dangerous. The soft top is cumbersome to put up and down. When the tops up visability is worse. I traded in my 2007 Solstice for an MX5 which was way more fun to drive and roomier.
The Car of Your Dreams
I have never seen so many double-take, jaw dropping, envious stares in my life! The kind of attention I get is only matched by exotics. The car was bought for my wife to run around in. She LOVES it. I LOVE it. EVERYONE loves it. Pros: Everything.. Style, Performance, and Price. Cons: Not a Family car! Gas mileage is on the low side, 16-18 straight city/ 27 HWY. Somewhat limited trunk space (although I have stowed an entire grocery basket full of groceries).
