Pontiac Solstice GXP Coupe : Review

Pontiac Solstice GXP Coupe

As you look over the sexy lines of the Pontiac Solstice GXP Coupe you may wonder “what’s not to like” but unfortunately there are more than a few things. This coupe’s targa-style top is bothersome and some of the controls seem to be designed for tiny, double-jointed acrobats.

Many buttons are located with out much thought to actual human accessibility. The rear side windows are very small so much so that outward visibility is practically nonexistent. While the GXP is definitely quick and generally corners well, the suspension feels too soft and the steering and chassis can feel non-communicative. The overall ride is fairly comfortable but the seats are not. Basically the connection between driver and machine is sorely lacking.
