For Sale: 2007 Pontiac Solstice in Houston, Texas

Gateway Classic Cars Houston Showroom is proud to offer this striking 2007 Pontiac Solstice GXP, boasting a vibrant Aggressive Red exterior that captures attention and admiration wherever it goes. The GXP version of the Solstice debuted at the Los Angeles Auto Show in January 2006. This pretty Pontiac packs a punch of 260 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque from a direct-injection turbocharged and intercooled 2.0-liter version of GM's four-cylinder Ecotec mated to a 5-speed automatic transmission, and it is the first gasoline direct injection engine from the American automaker.

The Solstice was a runaway hit for Pontiac, with 7,000 orders in the first 10 days of availability and 6,000 more orders before winter. The Solstice was nominated for the North American Car of the Year award and Design of the Year award from the Automobile Journalists Association of Canada. It was the brand's first two-seater since the Pontiac Fiero was discontinued in 1988. The GXP version added a stiffer suspension, a taller axle ratio, and a shorter third-gear ratio in the same five-speed Aisin transmission as the Red Line models. Other GXP features include standard Stabilitrak traction control, a limited-slip differential, and anti-lock brakes.

Inside, you'll find a sleek black interior that complements the car's sporty persona. Comfort is guaranteed with air conditioning to keep you cool on warm days and a manual convertible top that lets you embrace the open-air experience whenever desired. The Solstice GXP is designed for those who appreciate both aesthetics and functionality, featuring aluminum wheels that enhance its dynamic look while providing a stable ride.

This model is equipped with an AM/FM/CD radio, offering entertainment as you navigate your way through city streets or countryside highways. Safety and convenience are at the forefront, with features such as anti-lock brakes, an anti-theft system, and both driver and passenger airbags ensuring peace of mind on every drive. Cruise control offers the ease of maintaining speed on long journeys, while power brakes, power locks, power steering, and power windows provide seamless control and accessibility.

You also get radial tires, a rear defogger, seatbelts, and a tilt steering wheel, all of which contribute to a comfortable and secure driving experience. Traction control adds another layer of stability, helping you maintain grip and control in various driving conditions. This little pocket rocket combines classic convertible charm with modern performance and features, making it a compelling choice for those who appreciate the thrill of driving.
