Pontiac Solstice GXP info
Wednesday, December 28, 2005 8:29 AM
A continuation of: "LA Autoshow's GM cars" thread.

The new two-seater gets more power with the debut of the Solstice GXP, which features GM’s all-new Ecotec 2.0-liter turbo, the most powerful production engine in the Ecotec family. This turbo with direct injection kicks a V-6’s worth of power out of a four-cylinder engine, an estimated 260 horsepower and 260 lb.-ft. of torque. It will arrive in dealerships this summer.

It will be a $4,000 to $5,000 premium over the naturally aspirated Solstice.

The car should show up in the show room numbers around 250HP. There is going to be a nice price tag on it to. I own the N/A solstice right now. From what I hear on the solstice forums it is going to get jacked up $6000US. Which is pretty bad. Because the dealers right now are already selling the car for $3000-who knows what over MSRP. It is really hard to find a N/A solstice right now for msrp. So look for a jump of close to over $10000 for the turbo solstice. I would just rather keep mine and super charge the bloody thing.

do you guys realize what you are asking ?????????????


i must say you 2 cant think straight , the solstice is REAR WHEEL DRIVE , so NO useable turbo parts for your front drives


use the saab 9-3 turbo eco parts for your cavs

oh I forgot so becuase its RWD you cant use the bigger injectors. a turbo manifold. stock sised turbo. and plenty of other perks. RWD sort of puts a few things out the door. but in no way is everything a bust.
