Any thoughts on the Solstice? other new Pontiacs?

Bobsmith 10 May 2005 01:29:49
 I'm just trying to bring a little life back to the group, so forgive me
if this has been discussed to death in other forums. I don't go to other
Fiero forums, so I wouldn't know.

Anyway, I like that Pontiac has been given a new sporty car, but I'm not
completly sold on the Solstice. My problem isn't with the car itself but
more with it's timing. It looks to me like Pontiac could have had
something but they waited until the "roadster" market was already
flooded. This isn't forward thinking. If there weren't so many other cars
just like it, I'd love one.

As for the firebird, I think that car needed radical changes but it
didn't get them. The modern market just will not tolerate a car that is a
battleship on the outside but cramped on the inside. People want a car
that is like the tardis, small and sporty outside but unbeleivably huge
inside. A cars useable space must be as high a percentage of total space
as possible, which leaves little room for giant sweeping windshields and
rear decks that are half the length of the total car. I didn't dislike
the firebird, but to me it wasn't as good as the fiero no matter what
engine they put in it.

The GTO is nice. I'd like to see someone do a chop top on it. The car
looks good now but if you chopped the top to make it a few inches shorter
and then parked it near normal GTOs I bet you'd have some heads turning.
Maybe someone here can photoshop a picture to see.

On second thought maybe sectioning would be better for the GTO. That's when
part of the car is removed from the middle instead of higher. It's next to
impossible and only completely custom cars have it.
