Pontiac Solstice Submodels
The Pontiac Solstice was a bold two-seat roadster born from a 2002 concept car and rushed to production for the 2006 model year. Built on GM's Kappa platform, it shared its underpinnings with the Saturn Sky. The base model featured a 2.4L Ecotec 4-cylinder, while the high-performance GXP model, introduced in 2007, added a 2.0L turbocharged engine with 260 horsepower.
Collector interest is highest for the GXP, particularly the ultra-rare 2009 GXP Coupe. With only 781 GXP coupes ever made, they represent the pinnacle of Solstice production. The car's dramatic styling, balanced rear-wheel-drive chassis, and status as one of Pontiac's last exciting cars make it a compelling modern collectible.
The market for the Solstice is broad, with an average sale price around $17,125. Standard convertibles offer an affordable entry point, but pristine GXP coupes command top dollar, sometimes exceeding $60,000. It's a car where condition and specification, especially the coupe body style, heavily influence value.
Buying Tips
- Early 2006 models had differential issues; check for rear-end leaks or whining sounds during a test drive.
- The manual convertible top can be complex; inspect it for tears, worn pivot points, and ensure it seals correctly.
- Prioritize the GXP model for its 260-hp turbocharged engine, which provides a dramatic performance increase over the base 177-hp car.
- Water leaks are a known problem, so check the trunk and passenger floor for any signs of moisture or staining.
- For the rare GXP Coupe, verify its provenance and condition carefully, as only 781 were built for the 2009 model year.
Prices range from $998 for project cars to $62,500 for top-spec GXP Coupe models.
