Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=Poor

Pros: What do you like about 2009 Pontiac Solstice?
The overall body shape.

High in the rear and low in the front.

I used to drive a 1997 Jaguar XK8, and this Pontiac that cost thousand less turns as many heads, if not more than the Jag did.

I like the large tires and handling.

The color is mean yellow, and I bought 2-tone black and yellow seat covers and a wind screen for it...now it has an exotic European look about it.

Cons: How would you improve 2009 Pontiac Solstice?
Some wood grain on the dash would have been nice.

Standard brembo brakes with Michelin tires.

An oil pressure and engine temperature gage in the dash.

2009 Pontiac Solstice Review:
When Pontiac really started getting it right, they kill the division....(how stupid and sad)...

It's surprising just how many people I've ran into have never seen one of these cars, and had no idea as to what it was....

If nothing else Chevrolet should have picked up this model, and continued it.

Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=Poor

Pros: What do you like about 2009 Pontiac Solstice?
First: love driving the car.
Second: Best looking of all vehicles on the road today, however I do like the Camaro.
Third: I like the performance, I also have a Corvette, I like the Solstice above the Corvette.
Fourth: Washing and Waxing is a breeze.

Cons: How would you improve 2009 Pontiac Solstice?
First: Interior needs to be a bit more Flashy, to match the exterior appeal.
Second: The arm rest on both sides of the drivers seat need to be padded, in other words the door panel needs to have an arm rest. And the console needs to be raised so as to rest your arm while driving, I have a cushion in place to make it more comfortable.

2009 Pontiac Solstice Review:
Overall, I love the car. Too bad it will not be continued in the future.

It's fun to drive, love the looks.
Wish I would have bought it sooner when I could have gotten a GXP loaded.

Difficult to see backing up.
No storage, but that's not why I bought it.

Pros: What do you like about 2009 Pontiac Solstice?
The coupe is very nice looking, sleak design, great sound system, comfortable seats, quick but not fast.

Cons: How would you improve 2009 Pontiac Solstice?
Make it a little faster, mirrors suck, very difficult to see rear and side views, the car needs more than one cup holder.

2009 Pontiac Solstice Review:
Overall I like the look and feel of the car. We have the coupe and it is difficult to see cars on either side or the rear. The sound system is great. The car is quick, but not fast, it stops on a dime and corners very well. I would buy it again and I may buy another one this week. We got our base coupe last week and I am looking for a coupe with a turbo and 5 speed.
