HarleyEarl 1 Posted August 26, 2005 I still love this concept and hope Pontiac builds it, preferably with a V6 and V8 as engine choices. The next Firebird? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
99camaroSS 0 Posted August 26, 2005 that is one sexy car. but why would u say the next firebird...... its a solstice.... your post should have said "solstice coupe?" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HarleyEarl 1 Posted August 26, 2005 Just a thought, make this coupe a V8 sports car but market it as a Firebird. It's not clear that Pontiac will do a version of the Camaro. Maybe have Pontiac go in a different direction. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ocnblu 1,143 Posted August 27, 2005 I love the Solstice hardtop coupe, but like the idea of all Ecotec engines. Sometimes, more is not more. With NA and forced induction Ecotecs, Kappa seems to be a perfectly balanced chassis. I'd buy a Solstice fastback, I'm dead serious. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HarleyEarl 1 Posted August 27, 2005 (edited) Me too Blu....I would buy this is in a heartbeat. That middle photo above so illustrates how the front wheels look like they are thrusting out ahead like a leaping panther's feet, 'straining' to pounce. Love that muscular tension.

LosAngeles 2 Posted August 27, 2005 Can't belive no one made the Opel GT call...or 2000GT/first Z maybe? Anyway, of course they should do it....and do not make a Sky version to go with it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
99camaroSS 0 Posted August 29, 2005 lol hey guys...... where does the rear of that solstice open? im not seein any lines or anything where the rear hatch would open Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HarleyEarl 1 Posted August 29, 2005 (edited) You access from inside......Corvette did that for years. We don't want to clutter up that nice Solstice bum with cracks. Edited August 29, 2005 by HarleyEarl Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sciguy_0504 0 Posted August 29, 2005 Very hot. GM needs to build this...awesome looks, goes with the convertible, not much investment, high rate of return. I agree with LA...no SKY version! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AAS 13 Posted August 31, 2005 wasn't one of the insiders, don't remember who, hinting something similar would make it to production? I remember the thread on the last board. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
