They look good... I guess. :P Nick has a point... but if there were some available for 92-95 GAs, I'd probably buy them too. I'm just going to have to settle with clearing them out by myself. I found some directions, now I just need to find a new left side taillight and buy some red bulbs...

This is a cool idea, although, I won't be doing much reviewing other than taking pics and only on vehicles from Chevy, Caddy, Buick, Pontiac, Dodge, Jeep, or Chrysler... :P

Well, well, well... Today was interesting. First I saw a white C3 Vette conv drive by my house. After that, I saw what I think was a 60s Ford Fairlane drive by. I saw a few Nova SS's as well as a first gen black MC. Every one of those were seen from my house... I also traveled to the DCX dealer. I got to finally look at some Chargers up close. I must admit, it is really growing on me. It looks so much better each time I see one. Other than a few details here and there... I like it. Then again... An R/T in Black matallic with a black leather interior, NAV, and rear seat DVD player hit some of my soft spots. Other ones didn't do much for me. While there I also got to look at the updated PT Cruiser. All I really have to say... The HHR is going to tear this thing to shreads. Not only is it the cheesiest update I think I've ever seen, it is out-classed by the HHR in every way. Looks, space, looks, proportions, interior, and did I mention looks?

8 5 Olds442: I actually got black by accident. I too play around with the hue/saturation as well as brightness with highlight/medium/shadow. It was to be a silver/blue/green-ish color until I messed around with brightness... Also... Mute voted for himself. That's bad... very, very bad. :D

Honestly, you guys... The "if you want space, buy a minivan" statement is completely necessary here. The Solstice wasn't meant to have much cargo space. It's a roadster for Christ's sake... Who buys one for trunk space? No one. People buy them for the styling, folding roof, performance and/or the sheer fun of the things. If you want the space, don't buy it. Get a larger car... a coupe; whatever. It's easy. You can't have everything you want, so either deal with it or do that. Jeesh... :rolleyes: As for the actual review... Of course the Solstice is not going to be as perfect as the Miata. So, overall, it wasn't a bad review but the 0-60 time is BS.

While RWD is great... Pontiac just needs an entry level coupe and sedan below the G6 that ISN'T a clone and ISN'T a "slushbox". AKA... has performance. FWD is fine... Pontiac just needs it.

No... There haven't been Sunfire SEs since 02. From 03 and on it was option packages only. No real trims. Nice try, though... :P

Well, other than the diesel comment, I completely agree with Satty. Since my previous post was vague... I'll go into just a bit of detail. :D Pontiac: -G6: Name changes to Grand Am. Trims change to SE, GT, GTP, GXP. Engine choices change to 3.6L V6 on GT/GTP, Turbo 2.8L I4 on SE/GT, and Turbo 3.6L V6 on GXP (all DOHC). Transmissions change to standard 6-speed manual and optional 6-speed auto on all engines (auto N/A on GXP). Suspenion changes to a more aggressive set-up. Brakes changes to larger cross-drilled discs on all 4 wheels. Interior changes: Higher quality materials, real brushed aluminum accents, new center stack that flows with the dash and into a new center console, new coporate radio/HVAC controls with optional NAV, and the color combos: black/black, black/gray, black/tan, black/gray/morroco (no specific names used). Exterior changes: new headlight elements with HID, specific front/rear fascias, spoilers, and ground effects for SE, GT/GTP, and GXP, body-colored mirrors, larger wheels; 17" for SE, 18" for GT/GTP, and 19" for GXP, removal of cladding, new rear for sedan includes sportier taillights and revised bumper with reverse lights, new rear for coupe/conv includes slightly revised taillights and revised bumper with reverse lights, and finally new exhaust tips; single for SE, dual for GT/GTP, and quad for GXP. -Torrent: Trims change to SE, GT, GTP. Engine choices change to 2.8L V6 for SE/GT and 3.6L V6 for GT/GTP (both DOHC). Transmissions change to standard 6-speed manual and optional 6-speed auto on both engines. Suspension changes to a lower and much more aggressive set-up. Brakes change to larger cross-drilled discs on all four wheels. Interior changes: all new design seperate from Equinox with round HVAC vents, sportier center stack, new coporate radio with optional NAV, higher quality materials, real brushed aluminum accents, and the color combos: black/black, black/gray, black/tan (no specific names used).

Engine choices change to 2.4L I4 for SE, Turbo 2.0L I4 for GT, and Turbo 2.4L I4 for GXP. Transmissions change to standard 5-speed manual and optional 5-speed auto for 2.4, standard 6-speed manual and optional 6-speed auto for T2.0, and 6-speed manual for T2.4. No suspension or brake changes expect the addition of a sportier set-up for GXP. Interior changes: higher quality materials, real brushed aluminum, and the color combos: black/black, black/tan, black/tan/morroco. Exterior changes: the addition of a coupe body-style, slighty revised headlights with sportier shape, HID elements, and integrated ambers, sportier front fascia with sharper twin-port grill and smaller fogs, ground effects for GXP, and finally new exhaust tips; single for SE and dual for GT and GXP. Damn, that was alot of writing... and for only 3 vehicles! :D I'll finish the rest later...

I wasn't around too long on the Snitz boards... So I was the post whore on the previous one after it got started. :D Anyways, I love smilies if you couldn't tell. I never not use them unless I am super serious. Even then, I may throw one it. I just don't know what I would do without them. But, I have lots that I think should be added. Now to go find them...

:withstupid: Small european hatchbacks, I4s, and FWD are all fine with me regardless of what is needed, however. Just as long as they don't sound like vacuum sweepers and aren't ugly. Anyways, better technology and such will help as mentioned. Some examples are DOD, lighter constuction, sleeker design, fuel-cell tech., and of course gas/electric hybrid systems. I still think this will all lead to the demise of the SUV. Not totally, but they will have a much, much smaller market compared to now. Well, I hope, anyways as I hate SUVs.

Nos... x2 Still freaking funny, though. As is Satty's post.

It's a concept, right? And from the... '70s? I've seen it before, but I'm not sure of the name... And as Nos said... it's gorgeous.

Same with the Z34 on Lumina/MCs and I think Z26 on Berettas... Engine size doesn't make sense with the numbers.

Damn, FS... Talk about blatant copy... <_< J/k... I know you didn't. It looks good... even though it's so similar to mine. :P

Well, I like small cars... So, I suppose I agree.

Aww... Thanks, Mute! :lol: :D ;)

I prefer each forum to have a certain Mod, but hey, it's not my forum...

This is almost like asking "If Pontiac makes the Fiero and they make the Formula... Do you think there will be a G6 Formula or Solstice Formula?" Except... The Fiero will never be made as long as GM works the way they are now. So, who's up for Pontiac being bought off of GM? I know I am and have been for a while. Sad, isn't it? Damn, GM annoys me so much sometimes...

Yes and No... I saw it, but I tried not to...

You guys are crazy... and post whores. Jeesh... I leave for 3 hours and you guys whore it up talking about "Nips" and "Tucks" ....Damn.

I know Blu and Nos... But I was the only one to say anything in this thread. :P Long live Em! :D

Nobody loves me enough to reply... Anyways, not only is my parking brake shit... My back brakes are shit. They work, but about as well as the ones on my "Piece of Shit" TRX200... Barely. They're crappy drums anyways... Also, I just noticed that the fog lights turn off when the high beams are off. It's retarded. They're not even that bright. More or less, they're for looks only. I'm going to see what I can do about that... Another thing is my headlight stalk. Talk about annoying. It takes about 5 pulls to get it to switch from high to low beam or vice-versa. I think it may be because its shitty and because of what I said earlier.

BTW, Turbo, I felt the same way about posting pics of myself...

Hmm... I would... change the entire Pontiac lineup to a... uh... sportier one.

Well... I... uh.. went to the Harley Davidson museum about a year ago. :P No automotive ones yet... sorry. :( :D
