not sure how i feel!

 

at 2.4 liters, you'd think they can get more horsepower out of it than just 172. amatuers!

 

 

the front isnt that bad but the rear kills the whole car!


is it a retractable hard top??

 

It's mildly cool looking, kinda like if an S2000, 350z and a Charger were in a love triangle. Not much of innovation there it seems. Kinda seems like they stole a bit from various rides and put it all together rather than trying to make something new. That engine seems way underpowered too.

 

I still like the Sky a lot better and the Solstice is slowly growing on me. I particularly dislike the rear fenders on the Dodge.

 

Not too fond of the grill in the front.

 

The Solstice reminds me of the Chevy ssr truck thing. A stab at a modern throwback retro something or other :PUKE:

 

I still wouldn't buy one... but they are becoming less weird to me every time I see one in person. That... and I know I could get a very upgradeable turbo engine under the hood. That might be tainting my opinion of it as well.
