Vehicle Summary: 2008 Pontiac Solstice
The Pontiac Solstice is an affordable and entertaining two-seat convertible. It comes with a choice of four-cylinder engines, one of which, called the GXP, is turbocharged to produce 260 horsepower. The Solstice handles well, but is a little rough around the edges in terms of refinement.
