I have been following the Solstice ever since it was a concept, but I wanted more power. Well, they just answered my requests, I just ordered the new Solstice GXP with 260HP. This is the first roadster I can fit in comfortably and I'm 6' 4" tall. The design of this car made me fall in love on sight, now the waiting begins, expect delivery by Christmas. gary | |

I hope the dealer doesn't sell me out when the car comes in and someone offers him 5 grand over sticker, this has been known to happen with cars this hot. gary | |

Join Date: Feb 2006 Location: Ruston and New Orleans, LA Posts: 6 | Congrats!  You are comfrotable in the Solstice? I'm 6'4 as well (I'd say that my height is slightly more in my legs-34" inseam-than torso.), and my head was on the roof, and I couldn't even get my legs in. They are teriffic looking cars, and I could only imagine how fun they are to drive, but they are just soo small!

The Saturn delare had a couple of Sky's out and while Im not a Saturn fan at all I really liked the agressive looks of the Solstice's brother. Congrats on your purchase, when are you expecting it?
