2006 Pontiac Solstice

Description

No one knew it at the time, but when this first-year 2006 Pontiac Solstice roadster came on the scene, it would be the beginning of the last great Pontiac. So when you can find such a low mileage one that has an awesome color combo and a five-speed, you know this is the most affordable and desirable future classic around.

Pontiac has always been about striving for thoughtful sports cars in the GM lineup, and that reached its pinnacle with the Solstice. Aiming to be a lighter and nimbler companion to the Corvette, the Solstice has all the great performance design cues we all love. This includes the long hood, scalloped fenders, sleek profile, and short rear deck. Plus, Pontiac was really doing a great job with their styling of the twin grille that was dangerously BMW-like, and everyone loves the dual buttresses that meet the headrests. All of this is straight from Pontiac, just like glossy Victory Red paint and the dealer option 18-inch polished alloys. And the reason why this looks so great is this car has less than 8k miles on the odometer in total!

Low mileage also means the black interior continues to look dark, clean, and quite attractive. The supportive bucket seats highlight a cockpit that's built around the driver. The three-spoke sports steering wheel has all the modern controls you could want. Beyond that is a handsome set of analog gauges that light up red when you turn the key. This is loaded with all the right features, including power windows, power locks, keyless entry, dual air bags, cruise control, a powerful AM/FM/CD stereo with auxiliary input, and cold-blowing air conditioning.

Under the hood is the numbers-matching 2.4-liter fuel-injected motor. Ultra-low mileage and proper maintenance means this looks like new. This peppy and powerful DOHC motor was GMs version of a sports car for the modern era. In this lightweight setup, the Solstice delivers the kind of performance you'd expect in a Japanese or European import but wrapped in American styling. This sporty spirit is felt every time you hit the open the road. The five-speed manual provides complete control, and the fully independent suspension loves every corner. Add in great anytime features such as power steering and four-wheel power disc brakes, and this is an unbeatable driving package.

The sale comes complete with the owner's manual packet and reproduction window sticker. This low-mileage Solstice is a blast to drive today and a great classic to have for tomorrow. Offering all of this at such an affordable price means it will be leaving us soon. Call today!!!
