Interesting comparison... not the first comparison I would have come up with but it's nice to see the little Pontiac didn't embarass itself.

Better accelleration than a $50k Boxster, I think the Solstice (and Sky) just pizzed in someones sauerkraut;LOL. Someone in Stutgart is going to have some essplaining to do.

And no doubt that with just a little more $$$ in aftermarket purchases and this thing will be cleaning a lot of clocks.

However, I still like the Sky styling a lot better than the Solstice.

Agreed. The Sky is very good looking car. Easily GM's second best looking car right now behind the Corvette. The Solstice just doesn't do it for me.

Gotta love that new engine too!

If it came in brown, I would swear it was a large beaver coming down the road.

I'll be thinking of giant beavers now when I see one of these.
