Casual Race with Sol
My neighbor pulled up next to me at a stop light with his Solstice and we had a little acceleration race for fun. Not sure if i even need to mention the results, he was way back in two seconds. I will say that the Solstice is a very nice looking ride in person, never really liked it much in pictures.
Safety Note: this was on a two lane open road and I shut her down at 65, so please no speeches. |
The Solstice top looks real funky in the back! Like a badly folded pocket square. :) Looks totally like a second thought.

I assume this was the regular Solstice with 177 hp?
The Solstice GXP (Saturn Sky Redline) is coming later this year with 260 hp (5.5 0-60). I'm sure the 987 S is still faster, but it will certainly be closer. Hypothetically of course, since I'm sure they'll be no Solstice vs. Boxster races going on... :) I will say that being beaten by a Solstice in a hypothetical race would be pretty embarassing. A coworker has the regular Solstice and I don't much care for the looks or the fit and finish. Plus a manual top that requires one to get out of the car is Paleolithic. I do like the looks of the Saturn Sky though. |
