2006 Pontiac Solstice

The 2006 Solstice debuted with a naturally aspirated 2.4 liter four cylinder Ecotec engine making 177 horsepower and 166 pound feet of torque, with a five speed manual or five speed automatic, standard 18 inch wheels and antilock brakes. Production at Wilmington started in mid 2005 at only seven cars per hour, and the roadster received more attention than anticipated, leaving 13,000 orders against 7,000 cars projected, and it was a finalist for North American Car of the Year.
