where are all the Pontiac Soltice?

[andylawcc]

and I thought everyone raved about it.... but where are they?

 

[computeerrgghh]

I saw someone driving one the other day.

 

[imported_LoKe]

I found one!

 

[ElFenix]

i've seen a few

 

[Squisher]

I saw a Saturn Sky yesterday.

It's just starting to get warm enough drive a roadster.

 

[MikeMike]

i saw 2 last night, one silver, and one blue.

they arent on dealer lots, because they are only making what are ordered...

and GM does NOT want them on lots. the solstice when it does sit on a lot, is there for about 2-3 days, or the dealer has purchased one just to generate foot traffic.

they are HARD to find unless you preordered one.

I see them around Detroit pretty often (shocking, I know), but with it still being winter here, most people probably still have them in their garages...soon though, soon!

Like the Fiero, it's got no balls. I wish they'd quit building that kind of crap!

 

[NutBucket]

I saw one last night in Studio City.

It's a 20k vehicle--how much engine do you expect?

It looks nice, and it is relatively inexpensive, so I'd consider getting one....

 

[swtethan]

i have seen a few also, one in dealership, one every day at school

They will be producing a turbo'd version here shortly that tacks on an additional 100HP or so on top of the base model. That's a pretty potent little roadster for around 25k.

The original Mustang was like that. All show and no go. (It only sold because it was unique.) The OP wanted to know why you don't see any around... well, that's why!

[ShowdOWN]

some people on here are retarded...

they are selling for MSRP, if you want a Sky, almost all saturn dealers are selling for MSRP, and hell.. theres a guy over on TCL who got a sky, with turbo kit (not redline) for 24k.

a supercharger can make that little 2200lb car go....

and we can talking about a sub 30k car here... i don't expect car with V8 with 300 and above horsepower.
