Went to dealership and after driving it I bought it . Handles great ....love the acceleration . Very impressed with the mpg . Had to get water pump replaced at dealer ...the timing chain whined and I took it back . They charged me alot more than the water pump replacement to fix a problem they caused with the timing chain tensioner . They would not take responsibility for the tensioner being tripped during the water pump removal . Other than that the car has performed without a hitch for 150k . Garage kept of course .

Missing my solstice

I had a stage 2 turbo and had about 320 whp and the car was so much fun and very reliable. Only real issue I had was the ac. I sadly don’t have it anymore because of a semi falling asleep and merging onto me and totaling my car. The car was safe as I didn’t break anything and considering how bad the accident was and how small my car was it’s pretty crazy. I’m 6’1 and it fit like a glove. My biggest gripe would be the lack of storage compared to similar cars like z4 and Miata. It was my daily so it was kinda frustrating for the space but as a second vehicle it’s the best

Hot Car But Needs a Chrome Grill

My previous car was BMW Z4 3.0. So far, I really like the GXP's performance. The exterior is hot! My only beef with the exterior is the black grill -- it looks cheap! Why not keep the same chrome grill as the Solstice? The interior is sleek -- the seats hug you. However, there is no storage space. I can't even find any place to keep my garage door opener. I've noticed that the window controls are in an awkward place -- inevitably, my elbow triggers the windows. The biggest pain is the manual top -- miss the Z4's automatic top. There is no trunk space with the top down. Wish they offered navigation system as option. But can't beat the price and bravo to Pontiac for its cool design!
