I was wondering what the most common solstice colors are and if there are more of some specific colors than others?

Thanks everyone.

If you want a rare color, get a white Sky or Sol. You very rarely see them.

That’s what I'm looking for! We're going to be making some polished stainless steel trim pieces with GXP engraved in them. They will have a color matched back plate mounted behind the letters. When you look though the laser cut-outs you will have the body color painted in the background. It should look really clean. Another unique add-on for those looking to add some more bling to these sharp cars.

BTW...we just picked up another Sol. (Aggressive)

I'll post some pictures soon!

In Miami with the guy that build it, no way in life im bringing that car to MD, u need a trustworthy mechanic for a car like that...

But anybody in Miami can stop by TBK Performance in Miami, located in the Doral Area and ask for the owner Manny and i can tell him to let anybody see it... he is currently working on a new rear end cus he blew mine in a 1,000 peaces. but thats the good thing of a good mechanic always responsable to fix what they break...lol
