Re: 2006 Pontiac Solstice: $19,995! (ragingfish)

Keep in mind, that's only the factory setting. You could get a manual boost control for $80 and get some more horses out of it. Also, Miatas are light, light, light. I've always considered their RWD to be a plus too, because they make great drifting cars.

Re: 2006 Pontiac Solstice: $19,995! (ragingfish)

They're still around. They just recently released the new Mazdaspeed Miata MX-5 which comes with a stock turbocharger. 185 hp, RWD, and a light-weighing car.Watch for their 2007 Miata though.

Re: Solstice Designer Bolts to Mazda (redlava)

It doesn't look that much like the solstice. The 2007 Miata just looks like a larger, beefier Miata with dual exhaust. The nose-piece for the Miata will be redesigned, and will look more similar to the RX-8.

It was probably usiong the KA24DE engine. Stock and naturally aspirated, it's rated for around 155 hp. Turbo kits are common and cheap for KA24DE's too. And lord look out if he did an SR20DET swap or an RB25DETT swap.

I HATE dealer mark-ups. You should just be able to cut the dealer out by going to http://www.pontiac.com and ordering one from the factory!Also, this car is one of the reasons the new Miata is getting all beefed up.

Scion is is indeed pronounced "Sigh-Yon" and the words refers to either an heir ro a legacy/throne/etc, or a descendant. Personally, I believe it refers to the fact that it's a descendant from Toyota. Makes sense to me, and that's the story I'm sticking to.
