Used 2009 Pontiac Solstice Consumer Reviews
Drop Top Dream
Although I have only owned a month and put about 700 miles on it, it hasn't disappointed me yet. I had the power up package added. Now 290 HP and 340 ft lbs torque according to article in Hot Rod. I still get goosebumps when I step it down and look at speedometer, I won't admit what it read! Admittedly going to be a summer ride for me but it will be a GREAT summer!
This is what I've wanted a along
Magazine reviewers have lost the perspective of being an actual owner of the car. This car makes me feel 25 years younger and, for the first time, strangers actually look at what I'm driving. Even had a couple take a picture of it! It handles like better than any car I've EVER driven, accelerates on a touch, and stops evenly and when I want it to. For a big guy like me, it's comfortable and reasonably roomy (for a roadster, that is).

A sporty little conv' rarely need to brake
Its not the fastest , but handles so well, with a classic point and shoot philosophy. You look out from the somewhat cramped but i always fit cockpit, over the long hood and sense your about to drive something special. Although the 2.4 is a little wheezy, row the gears quickly, hold gear till 6000 rpm's and changing with purpose and you'll be doing 60 in under 7 seconds. It loves back roads, and with the little side windows up its not too noisy either. Once, you understand the wonkiness of the convertible top operation it all makes perfect sense and down gives the car a great line and a completely different look than with the top up!. had mine almost a year very well maintained had low miles, and it needed nothing. You'd never guess its 10 years old!

excellent
I have never had any problems. Always get the oil changed and car maintained at the given times. Fun car and I am sorry the car won't be made now in the following years. Good buy with fun results.
First Car
I received this as my first car when I first started driving, and I can honestly say it's been the best car I have ever driven. For 15k, you get an engine that feels just as powerful as a 911. It has very sexy angles that perfect it. Go pontiac!
