2008 Pontiac Solstice Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, drivers enjoy the 2008 Pontiac Solstice for its fun and stylish design, strong performance, and impressive handling. Many appreciate its eye-catching looks and exhilarating driving experience, especially with the top down. However, a common downside is the limited trunk space, making it impractical for long trips or carrying much cargo. Some drivers also felt the interior could have better quality materials."
Absolutely love it and only bought it yesterday, but have taken 4 drives since getting it home. Such a fun and beautiful vehicle.
July 12, 2022Great fun car that gets looks, but remember that its a roadster. There is very little room for anything except yourself and your dog or a few bags of groceries on the passenger seat. Its an engine and pretty sheatmetal.
April 22, 2023Id love to get back to the feeling of driving a go cart style sports car.

January 22, 2022The best part of the car is driving with the top down on a sunny day. Handles great, looks great. Easy for one person to put the top up and down. Gauges are located well, and the transmission shifts well. Don't plan on a long vacation though given the trunk space.
March 18, 2015Snappy acceleration and braking, Hollywood good looks, new so no repairs, a little too much interior plastic, killer blind spot at 7PM with hood up, good on gas. Trunk undersized, although will hold about 7-8 grocery bags full with the hood up. Real head turner, and great fun to drive!
August 23, 2008There isn't much more to say about it - I love my car. It drives amazing, looks amazing, and the speed isn't all too shabby either.
April 4, 2008Handling wise - very good. Convertible - Great! Styling - Along the lines of the old Cheetah which is cool. Useful - NO. Cant go on a road trip with a passenger because theres zero trunk space. Sooooooo,,,, kind of useless.
September 7, 2021Great features for a smaller car. A great value. The car is not missing anything I wanted
May 14, 2021I virtually loved everything about this Solstice GXP, especially her looks and feel of her. The power was amazing, but easily controllable. In less than 6 seconds, it breezed from 0 to 60 mph. The OnStar feature enabled me to recover her and thwart the thieves who stole her in an hour (they can do nothing until police report is filed). I did have her in shop a couple of times to repair damage done to hard plastic engine guard due to my going too fast and bottoming out. I would not hesitate to buy another. Their value appears to be on the rise in spite of or maybe because of the model being discontinued.
July 30, 2014A blast to drive, useless trunk that somehow functions for weekend getaways. We'll see what happens this winter, snow tires are a must. I continually get compliments on how it looks and it hasn't taken me back to the dealer too many times yet.
