I'm so getting one of these bad boys in the summer of 09. Just buying a base model with the 2.4L and throw on a stage III or IV Hahns bolt on turbo kit giving me 130-240hp more HP.

I hope GM ain't looking to do a Sky version. Keep the Solstice the sole coupe and it'll fly out of showrooms. i’ve always leaned toward the Sky but this Targa Coupe is HOT.

But this coupe just looks really sexy, and makes the Solstice. I'd totally buy one of these in a GXP trim, I love that LNF. Although I'm predicting the price of the GXP Solstice coupe to probably be somewhere between 27k-31k, I wouldn't spend 30k on this, although with GMS if I could get this at 27k it'd be a no brainer.

They'll be lucky if they sell 1,000 of them. If you're going to buy a completely impracticle 2-seater sports car, why not have it as a convertible? Convertibles are more fun. Not to mention the convertible looks much better. I don’t get the point of this car. They’ll be lucky if they sell 1,000 of them.

Speaking on behalf of those who live in a Northern rainforest, the fact that it has a fixed roof only adds to the appeal of a wonderfully styled little coupe. Now I want to know if they've given it enough storage in the back to hold a set of clubs just in case the sun does come out.
