Pontiac Other 2008
General description :
2008 Pontiac SolsticeVIN 1G2MB35B88Y111971Pontiac Solstice. A low mileage, (18,593), convertible, that turns out to be a thrill to drive, and is in near perfect condition.Drivetrain A clean 2.4 Liter 4-cylinder fuel injected engine, is backed by a 5-speed manual Aisin transmission, and certainly no problems here. 3.90 is the final drive and it puts out 177 horses.Exterior - Black Taking on lines that seem as though they were drawn with only a compass and french curve in hand, this curvy, aerodynamic design is bathed in black. From the bulbous front Jaguar-esque grille, to the inset headlights, a long rounded hood, swept back windscreen, and rounded rear with integrated tail lamp with the rear quarters, this car can slice through the air like a Ginsu knife through buttah! Right down to the dual humps created by the rear deck emulating the top curvature of the headrests that die into the trunk, we are talking classic Jag racing. Sporty 5 spoke polished Pontiac wheels are bolted on all 4 corners, a nice two tone cloth canvas convertible top, tops off the exterior of this great little sports car. A few minor stone chips expected from an 18k mile car. Power windows, locks, mirrors, seat. Remote key fab. Cruise control and much more.Interior Very clean and sleek interior. Integrated design is the buzz word here as we swing open the door you can run your hand all around the door panel, and probably feel nary a bump, as everything is flush and clean. In high back form, these buckets back up to a dual eyebrow rear cowl at the cockpit end of the trunk deck if you will. Looking inside the trunk is a nicely covered in felt material trunk lining that protects the top very nicely and snugly, when it is in the down position.Undercarriage Wrapped in its aero package seamless unibody design, no rust or problems noted. Very clean, with power disc brakes in front and back. Showdown Motors 586-791-0778
