Not much comparison there. The Solstice is a great car and the GXP model is one hot little car but the ZR1 Corvette is far and above a superior car. Now if you're talking price tags then it would obviously be the Solstice GXP with the best "BANG FOR THE BUCK". Let's face it, the average Joe cant afford the new ZR1 but most of us can afford the GXP solstice.
a zr1 ishas REDICULOUS horespower and speed! Even tho if you have $107,000, a zr1 was created for some serious racing. competes with modern day lambos and ferraris. or so ive read
GM is going to selling a warrented 290-300HP tune for thier ectech SiDi 2.0 that should be out buy years end or early next. Sound GREAT with a warrenty to boot! Put 300 stock HP in a SS or a Solstice. You have a 100+ in the 1/4 and The Sols are all ready rocking scca allready should be nothing but fun. In stick with steak , keep the rice.
and plus the gm turbo engine gets about 10 mpg more than the wrx or the evo. soo its more practical.
Actually.. yes, GM does develop good engines.. The EcoTech is a great motor. Remember, this is a 2.0L four cylinder, with a twin scroll turbo (very little boost lag), with 20 pounds boost!! AND it can run regular fuel, has direct injection, and is really conservatively set to run only 260Hp.. All this with a 160K km warranty (100K miles), not bad.. and you can get a similar motor in the Cobalt SS and HHR SS.. Buy American, why not.. now they build good stuff, also keeps US economy running..

maybe because you think with your going to beat a evo with this pice of crap....260hp out of a turbo charged 2.4L isnt that great...S200 makes 240 N/A now with a turbo....

What is all that smoke? It doesn't look like a cold day and the car is too new to burn oil.

this is a turbo 2.0 not 2.4 and GM is the developing the best turbo 4's on the market right now.
s200 is a great car but a little over priced and with real low torque. this car has 260 pounds of totque the s2000 only like 160

Teenage boys drive evos
Grown men drive Solstices
On a road course it would be a close race. Evo has only a slight edge.
The problem with japanese cars are that they are usually driven by girlie men, wiggers, or pubescent kids.

They are nice cars but the 2.4L at this point of time has more potential for larger hp numbers.

The Solstice GXP is a 2.0L as for the S2000 it only has 153 lb or 162 lb of torque depending on what year it is but the Solstice GXP has 260 lb.

I really like the Pontiac Soltice, but some of my friends say it's kind of girly. Any thoughts?
johngrove 4 years ago
I don't think it's any more girly than an s2000 or miata. A girly car is a Beetle.

@rollhard1 I've seen some badass beetles and some pretty girly miatas :P

@rollhard1 miata is more girly than the solstice and s2000. miatas are not that fast
