Only 1,100 sold before Pontiac closed its doors!

I'm thinking ........ I'm thinking .....

Do you mean the Solstice GXP? I love those cars. They made 4,826 Solstice in 2009. I prefer the styling of the Saturn Sky Redline though. They probably sold even fewer of those. Apparently in 2010 they made only 10 Saturn Sky. That's a lot fewer than the 51 of my '97 Canadian SVXs made.

A buddy of mine just bought a 2008 chilli pepper red Saturn Sky Redline with 8,000 miles on it. It looked new and is a blast to drive. He drove over a mountain pass with his brother and me (we have corvettes) and it had no problems keeping up. It has a very unique look and lookes very similar to the Solstice. Keep us posted. :)

My co-worker has beautiful dark blue Solstice, immaculate. Id rather have a buick Reatta;)

Blacky and Earl,
I am thinking about the coupe rather than the convertible. Only 1,100 produced. here's one in CA: http://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-s...hRadius=0&mmt=[PONT[SOLSTICE[]][]]&listingId=345804388

The neat thing about THIS one is 1) low miles and 2) it has the best part is that GM offers a “tune” for the engine that takes it to about 300hp, which this one has already ......

But, probably only a dream at this point ....... I really don't want to sell the '97 SVX since it is essentially in show room condition and ALL the maintenance is up to date by Ole Tom. And new tires to boot. Of course the '92 is also is very good condition ...... sooooooo ...... who knows ...

Re: Hate to Say it, But I'm Thinking About This Car
 

I wouldn't mind a GXP coupe. The Saturn is OK, but the front is a little too busy. I would have to get a black one and black out some of the chromey bits.

Re: Hate to Say it, But I'm Thinking About This Car
 

And besides, the Saturn SKY did not have a coupe version - at least here in the States .... But the BLACK would be awesome!

Never mind - I hate convertibles!

Rearward vision looks like it's right up there with a panel van, but with the turbo version, you shouldn't have to look over your shoulder anyway. I'm sure Ruth will approve this purchase.

I'd buy it. Ben and I were just talking about these the other day.

Re: Hate to Say it, But I'm Thinking About This Car
 

IF I hit the lotto! OR get some really good prices for the SVXi ... But boy would I hate to sell them!

Re: Hate to Say it, But I'm Thinking About This Car
 

Harry,

GXP or go home! ;):cool:

They will handle some fairly large tires without any mods to the body (295? 315?). I think they go in BS -> ASP -> FP. I believe one was the BS champion at Nationals a couple of years ago.

Cheers,
Bill

I love them, beautiful cars, especially considering that it was a GM product. I hear the truck is very, very small, but I don't imagine that really matters much.

Just put the roof down, unlimited storage space in the passenger seat ;)

They made a TRUCK Version ? :lol:
