llog215 Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 Not bad. I wonder what Mazda will do to respond? Maybe a turbo charged Mazdaspeed Miata..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 "Though it's barely begun to satisfy pent-up demand for the hot new Pontiac Solstice roadster, General Motors will add a second, high-performance version to the lineup. The turbocharged Solstice GXP will bump horsepower to 260 and torque to 260 lb-ft, both about 50 percent more than the base two-seater. That will be enough, company officials declared during an LA preview, to launch the Solstice GXP from 0-60 in less than 5.0 seconds. The performance version should account for at least ten percent of total Solstice sales, though Pontiac could bump production up as high as 30 percent, said GM's marketing czar, Mark LaNeve. Struggling to increase capacity for one of the few successes in the current Pontiac lineup, the automaker believes it can no build as many as 20,000 copies of Solstice this year, along with as many as 10,000 of the slightly more upscale Sky roadster, which will be sold by the sibling Saturn division." -- TCC I also just read in Motor Trend that Chevy is bringing back the Stingray as a kappa car, the sketch looked a lot like the solstice with more of a Corvette front.
