The buzz in Detroit says that the initial Solstice will last 6 model years, with a second generation (hopefully they'll be one!) due out for the year 2012. I hope they don't go in Corvette's recent direction by putting a dated Camaro front end on the car. How can they improve this car without taking a step down? I mean design-wise, not performance-wise. If anybody's an artist in this forum, why don't you come up with a new design and post it. We'd all like to see! Later!

So tempting, so tempting...but I'll be nice.

When you think that the Miata didn't change much over the past 15 years (excluding the new 2006 Model) I don't think Pontiac/GM will have to do much to the Solstice over the next decade.

Typical year over year changes (just speculation):

Late 2006/2007: GXP version in addition to the normally aspirated Solstice
Automatic
2008: Color changes
2009: More hp for base model/GXP model and color changes
2010: Special Option Packages/Limited Editions
2011: Slight styling changes to nose and rear maybe interior too
2012: Grand Touring Edition (GT), push button start introduced
2013: Electric version (I hope not, but what the heck)
2014: Hydrogen version (now we are getting goofy)
2015: ???

Hibernation would be an improvement.
