There are in the 21 and up range. Well at least the ones my dealer ordered, but I might be able to find something out more today on things like that. We are getting 5 of the first 1000, but 3 have been sold so far. I can't wait to drive one. hehe....

I keep hearing it's the roadster that starts under $20,000 & that's what it says on the Pontiac website too.

then buy a 240 s14's can be had for 3-10k depending on what your lookin for there's a guy selling his s13 coupe on 240sx.org for like 2200 with a ca18det swap already done and i think he's somewhere in new york state too. but then again its not a gm becouse i know your a gm fanboi. but if it were near me i'd jump on it.

It's been my expierance and observation.

I have a 1995 lumina with 210K miles on it and the only thing thats happened its the tranny needed rebuilt at 190k. Pretty good considering that my dad runs somewhere between 6k-8k miles in between oil changes and doesn't use synthetic or lucas oil treatment. Uses 87 octane gas.

Got a few friends with sentras around the same year and they smoke and break all the time. So....... its been my expieriance that american cars hold up just as good if not better than imports of equal classes. Obviously a 1990 BMW is going to hold up better than a cavalier

they start at $19,995
not sure how many options come w/ that
but if you want options that brings the price up and over

true but the 25k price tag and longer wait may push more consumers towards solstice that would have bought the sky

Honestly, I couldn't agree more.

This thing sucks up gas like a.... (insert oddly amusing comparison here)

The only thing it does get well is highway mileage. I got back from a 3 hour roundtrip drive the other day and calculated 25 MPG. Swirl Port Heads are your friend Borst!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Solistice?

Meh, I just read the specs on the Solstice, number-wise the Solstice looks good, 170HP and 170lbs/tq. at 2,860lbs.

Miata has 142Hp and 125lbs/tq at 2,447lbs.

Should be a good match.
