going to pick up my "new" 2006 solstice today.it is an envious green sol with only 38,000 miles and it looks almost new,ever under the hood.woke up early so i have about 3 hours to wait.just wondering what percentage of these cars were green,id never seen one before.it still has the window sticker and has every option known to man other than the turbo.over 6 thousand bucks worth of options.

Welcome to the forum, reds. Somehow even with all the options on it I think you'll find a few more places to spend money!

The green is really nice. You're right you don't see very many. Congrats on your new toy.
As you know, pictures are expected.

I am the original and current owner of a 2006 green Solstice. They are rare. I went on a Solstice rally a few years ago. 30 cars there, mine was the only green one. Enjoy!

my buddy and I were in Ashville,NC in 2012 His was the only Envoius Solstice there but about 7 Saturn Sky that color . In Flagstaff,AZ 2013 there were 4 Envious Solstice his was the only one pure stock . I had the only Magnetic Carbon Flash Solstice there. Don't know how many Envious Solstice were made but only 274 M/C/F Solstice made and only in 2008 . T think the Envious color is the rarest color up to 2008. 2009 coupe color s thats a different story.

Welcome, redcoat'76! Great color choice! Pure is rarer among the pre-coupe Solstices and the dark blue metallic "Deep" may be as well.

According to records from one of the VIN sites 2006 green was 949 of 21,273 or 4.5%. Second lowest to MEAN (special package of 54 cars).

Welcome redcoats 1976 ! I own a 2007 Envious Green Solstice as you will find out they are pretty rare cars ,in 2007 they only made 630 so you are in a pretty elite group .Last summer I made my annual pilgrimadge to the Woodward Dream Cruise and ran into a parking lot full of our cars and more than one person commented on the fact that they knew GM made our cars in this color but had never seen one. Hope this helps there is a site online that lets you do a search based on your cars vin # and breaks down how many cars were made that year with the options listed .Comprehensive Chevrolet, Saturn, GMC, Hummer, Cadillac, Buick, Oldsmobile, Pontiac, Geo, Dodge, Plymouth, Jeep, Chrysler, Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, Mazda Truck, Mercedes VIN Decoder it's a one time free of charge service .Once again good luck and enjoy your car ! I don't know why all this extra info popped up when I submitted my post but the bottom line is compnine.com

thanks everyone.ive been having a blast with this car...even better than my previous honda del sol which i thought id keep forever(think my son is going to be gifted with it,id hate to sell it to someone i dont know)

 

[twowheeladdict]

Congrats. I am happy with my Mysterious, but if I had bought the green one I would be very tempted to give it the British racing look with the racing stripe and wood interior.

Enjoy your new toy.

 

[redcoats1976]

its stock all the way...looks fine to me.ive put wheels,etc. on every other car ive owned but this one doesnt need anything.

LOVE Envious green in these cars. I saw a picture of an Envious Coupe mule way, way back which started me on my coupe odyssey. I didn't realize Envious was discontinued for 2009, and that the pic I was looking at was of a mule (long since scrapped). If Envious was an available coupe color, you'd be looking at a different pic in my avatar to the left...
