For Sale: 2007 Pontiac Solstice in Concord, North Carolina

As a last-ditch effort to save Pontiac, Bob Lutz's Solstice was ultimately unsuccessful. However, in the broader context of that failure, the 2007 Pontiac Solstice GXP and cars like it, were incredibly successful, creating a fun and unique performance sports car. With just 30,102 actual miles, this droptop roadster sports its original Mean Yellow exterior paint, complemented by a pair of silver racing stripes. While exact numbers are difficult to pin down, reputable sources indicate that the number of Mean Yellow GXP convertibles produced for the entire Solstice model run is likely just a few hundred. Then consider that this 2007 model is the first year for the hi-po GXP, and suddenly we have a strikingly collectible car.

Inside, we find a sporty and driver-centric Ebony leather interior. Dual bucket seats offer a perfect balance of comfort and support. A three-spoke power-assisted steering wheel with thumb controls sits ahead of a three-pod gauge cluster where a small center fuel gauge is bookended by a big 140 mph speedometer and an 8,000 rpm tachometer. The wraparound dashboard is home to simple HVAC controls, along with an upgraded Kenwood touchscreen head unit that provides Bluetooth, SiriusXM, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. A separate backup camera screen is plugged into the 12-volt power outlet, offering a clear view of everything behind you. Power windows, mirrors, and locks, combined with cruise control and air conditioning, offer all the modern amenities anyone could want in a late-model sports car.

Under that expansive clamshell-style hood, we find a turbocharged and intercooled 2.0-liter DOHC Ecotec inline-four-cylinder engine. Featuring a lightweight aluminum block and head as well as variable valve timing, this mighty mouse motor was able to pump out an impressive and balanced 260 horsepower at 5,300 rpm and 260 pound-feet of torque at 2,500 rpm. That power is routed through a five-speed manual transmission before being sent out to the 3.73:1 geared rear end. Thanks to a sub-3000-pound curb weight, the Solstice GXP could run from 0-60 mph well under six seconds and through the quarter mile in the high 13-second range, making it plenty fun whenever an empty on-ramp comes around.
