I'm not trying to be funny.
It makes sense in my mind.

As for the Kappa cars, I think they're all pretty ugly.

The Sky looks like it has a demented grin and the Solstice looks like a slightly used bar of soap with a bit of frogeye Sprite influence in the headlights.
It's not attractive to me, just sporty looking. It's like a buff ugly chick. Butch.

I think they both look pretty good. There's something different about them in comparison to most current roadsters and I like to see that, especially from GM.

As for the lesbian thing: You are a man. Men are not lesbians. Therapy session over.

Looking at the pictures again, it also looks buck-toothed.

I'll call myself what I want - like I said, I wasn't trying to be funny for other people's benefit.

Seriously, man.  You've got a gun.  I'm not saying use it, just, you know, put the fear of god in her.

This should be the same basic engine as in the Saab 9-3 2.0T. The 2.0T eaisly makes 250 hp with any number of aftermarket computer upgrades, one of which Saab officially supports and warrants (the one from Hirsch).

The Astra GTC makes that much power right from the factory, so I agree its shouldn't be an issue getting 250 HP from the 2.0T ecotech.

That being said it would be pretty cool if GM made a few different levels of Solstice. Base as is, 177 HP. Solstice GT with the 205 HP S/C 2.0 from the Cobalt, and a top-level 250 HP Solstice GXP.

Do they have any LS1s lying about still?  I'd love one of those bastards in there.  Solstice SS.

The only thing I don't like is the "GXP" part...whenever I hear that I think of the Grand Am/Grand Prix/whatever...not my fondest memories.
