The stock car itself has risen my attention quite a bit given it has the power to weight of a miata and is rwd for under 20k...

This however makes me start shaking my piggy bank...

The first regular solstices were delivered at the begining of the month, with expected all 10000 delivered by end of year. I find it funny cause I see 3 or 4 a day and saw preproduction models for several months(little did I know they are manufacturing them about 20 miles from where I sit).

Hopefully I ll get some spy pics of the sky, now that I know where to look.

Haven't seen a Solstice yet... but I saw the Sky at a show her in Denver, and it looks awesome.

400 HP in that little thing would be a dream. And then you could put the top down....
