Nice!!!!

Steve, do you still have your Envious?

[SolNut]

Nope, traded it in on the Coupe. Saw it the other day and talked to the second owner.

'Said they loved it'.....Still had the second set of tires that we put on it, so I don't think they drive too much.

Coupe (0069) is 36K+ and the Razorback Run will add almost 1K more.

But the smiles are worth it.!!!!

Take care-Steve

Any prior to that and many of those following seem to have been destroyed by GM.

Sorry, I just saw this post after 3.5 years.

My post was in two paragraphs, the first referring to someone who just bought a First 1000. But look closely at the second paragraph, it is referring to a VIN beginning with a 6Y1, which is not First 1000. I was stating that 6y100336 is the lowest of the pre-production mules to have survived.

You have an extremely low First 1000, shoeman, I'm envious! And of course VINNY #000001 has the very first Solstice sold in America, personally delivered by Bob Lutz.

VIN :1G2MB33B76Y000442 It had a delivery date of 8/17/2005 to BIGGS CADILLAC BUICK, GMC 1197 US HIGHWAY 17 S. ELIZABETH CITY, NC 27909-7630 (this is the original date of purchase).

I purchased the car on 8/25/2012 in Hattiesburg MS 39402, The color is Sly (grey). It is titled in the state of MS but I am Military so title may change states every few years.

Do you know what code 08300 means in relation to special coverage warranty? It states that I have this coverage on my car till 9/19/2015.

Between Small Dealer and me, we know EVERYTHING about the Pontiac Solstice.

Ummm, that's one of the things Small Dealer knows.

The fact is, he knows 99% of the Solstice stuff, I know 1%.

So send him a PM with your question, he's the coolest.

And thanks for the data, you're on the list.

Unfortunately, Small Dealer hasn't been around on the forum much at all for the last 3 years or so, since GM shut down a bunch of small Pontiac only small dealers, and he went his own way.

I'm really sorry to hear that, he was so full of information and helped anyone and everyone. He is certainly missed.

So can anyone help armortanker76 with his question?

Small dealer posted the answer here:

Extended Converter Warranty 2006-2007 2.4L Engines

[Geologger]

Interesting reading the Code 08300 info previously posted by Small Dealer. The GM letter apparently was sent to US car owners - I wonder if the extended converter warranty also applies to Canada?

[armortanker76]

Gizmo and MomsSol
thanks for the help and link. Maybe next tme I should look around before asking a stupid question.

[rob the elder]

There are no stupid questions . . ask away.

[SolLate]

Sounds like the enthusiam for first 1000 have waned. It really doesn't make any differnce to me, I plan to keep mine long term. I enjoyed getting #82 becuase I got it early.

Any info appreceased(sp)

[jeffgtx]

Just a reminder that this is for first 1000 convertibles in 2006. Not the numbered coupes. Seems to be a bit of confusion.

[SOL588]

Approaching 100K miles (98,960) and she looks and drives great. Still enjoy the car as I did the day I got it. Car has really held up well and has made me a big fan of GM cars.
