What Owners are Saying About the 2006 Pontiac Solstice

"fun to deive"

"I have had no problems with this car. It is a great little roadster. Putting the top up & down is a compliant to some. I can do it in about 20 seconds. Yes you have to get out of the car, we all need some exercise. The best thing about the solstice is the looks you get. The gas mileage is not to bad 27mpg. on the highway."

"Love her"

"Only problem so far - ridiculous to change the battery. Had to remove passenger side quarter panel to get there. No easy trick."

"Love this car!"

"I've had this car for four years now, and have enjoyed every minute of it. I was looking for a classic American roadster convertible, and the GXP fulfilled my expectations. The handling and acceleration are excellent. When I'm driving on the interstate, other cars may tailgate me. However, nothing is more fun that leaving them in the dust while navigating a cloverleaf. The reliability has been excellent as well. I've changed the oil and put on new tires over the last four years. That's it. Until Covid hit, this was my commuter car. Maybe the best part is taking the top off, and commuting home on a Friday night. Sheer joy!"
