I just bought a 2006 Pontiac Solstice convertible

I got a great deat, it's being delivered tomorrow. I always wanted a small sports car, and I miss driving a stick. Over the years I've always denied myself, now I'm 74 and said WTF. Anybody familiar with them?

1. My wife and I wanted one so bad. It's reputation was good and it is a beautiful car! Enjoy!

2. Thanks!

3. I wanted one when they first came out

but the short production run ended by the closing of Pontiac/Saturn worried me that parts would be hard to get eventually.

7. I think the parts are standard GM, beyond the body stuff

Yes very niche car, w only 65k make ever, but 2006 had almost 20,000 made. Congratulations, I hope it is in good shape and treats you well.

9. Only minor body "bling" changes.

13. Just got it back from my mechanic

New air filter, otherwise in great shape.

4. Great decision! I'm 79 now and the window of opportunity for doing what you've done is just about closed.

I'm sure you will enjoy your car.

5. Wishing you many good miles and happy trails!

6. Good for you. There used to be a Saturn version of that about a mile from me.

Red, of course.

8. The Solstice is a beautiful car.

I always liked Pontiacs, owned several, but never a Solstice. I hope you enjoy yours!
