I was about to post this into an existing thread, but decided it warranted it's own discussion.
From the beginning the Solstice reminded me of the early Corvettes. The idea of an open top roadster, not the current high performance sports car idea of a Corvette, the apparent size, the round front end....
Hopefully this is somewhat readable:
...........................Solstice.........................Corvette
height...................50.2..................................52
length.................157.2................................167
width.....................71.6...............................72.2
wheelbase...........95.1...............................102
track.............60.5/61.2...........................57/59
weight..................2860.............................2850
HP...........................170...............................150
I am in no way implying that the solstice will be the Corvette of tomorrow, just observing the beginning of life similarities. Before I looked it all up I did think the wheelbase/lengh of the two were closer to the same.
