For 2009, both Solstice coupe and convertibles come in two trims. The base convertible and coupe feature a 5-speed manual transmission standard and a 2.4L DOHC aluminum 4-cylinder engine that produces 173 horsepower and 167 lb of torque. Four-wheel disc brakes, a limited-slip rear differential, ABS, stability control, 18-inch aluminum wheels, traction control, a CD player with an auxiliary input jack and XM satellite radio are all standard. Both base trims have a starting price of just about $25,000.
The performance-oriented GXP trades the 2.4L Ecotec engine for a turbocharged 2.0L I4, boosting horsepower by nearly 50% to 260 and increasing torque to 260 lb. Along with the fiercer engine, the GXP receives a sportier 4-wheel independent suspension, dual exhaust outlets, and fog lamps. Convenience features such as cruise control, power mirrors and windows, remote keyless entry and steering-wheel-mounted audio controls are included as well. Both GXP models are price at about $30,000.
A broad array of options, including a 5-speed automatic transmission, leather seats, air conditioning, a 6-disc CD changer, and larger speakers help soften the Solstice's purposeful roadster experience. Metallic pedals and a rear spoiler are available on both trims, while the Club Sport Package adds ABS brakes, a limited-slip rear differential and a stiffer suspension to the base model.
Both models come with a 3-year/36,000-mile basic warranty, a 5-year/100,000 mile drivetrain warranty, a 6-year/ 100,000 mile corrosion warranty, and a 5-year/ 100,000 mile roadside assistance warranty.
The Base Trims achieve a fuel economy of 19 mpg city and 25 mpg highway, while the GXP trims boast 19 mpg city and 28 mpg highway.
