The Appeal

The Pontiac Solstice is one of General Motors' most charismatic modern roadsters. Launched in 2006 to widespread acclaim for its striking design and engaging driving dynamics, production ceased just four years later when the Pontiac brand wound down, putting an end to 85 years of all-American automobilia. This lends the car a certain rarity that only grows with time. In the UK, where very few were ever imported, the Solstice is as rare as hen's teeth and a remarkable headturner.

This example was imported from Florida in May 2014 with 31,351 miles on the clock, and has since been used sparingly, now showing 37,620 miles. Powered by the 2,400cc Ecotec inline four-cylinder engine paired with a six-speed manual gearbox.
