When it was introduced, the Pontiac Solstice was a nominee for the North American Car of the Year award. It was one of the last models built by the company before it was mothballed, which is a shame because, during its five years of production, this small, front-engine, rear-wheel-drive convertible sports car managed to find its way into the hearts of many. Our featured 2006 Pontiac Solstice Roadster is reported to be of exceptionally low mileage, with just 37,000 miles on the clock — that’s an average running of just over 2,000 miles per annum. This example features the naturally aspirated 2.4-liter Ecotec engine from General Motors, and puts power to the road via a five-speed manual transmission.
The exterior styling of the 2006 Pontiac Solstice Roadster is, in many ways, as timeless today as it was at launch. The first two-seater since the Fiero, the Solstice was built on GM’s Kappa platform, which also underpinned the Saturn Sky and Opel GT. It manages to look like a classic roadster, with a long hood and short deck, while incorporating the design language of Pontiac with its unmistakable front grille. You’ll notice large 18-inch Mag chrome five-spoke wheels complete with Pontiac center caps, wrapped in General tires that are reportedly brand new. The interior features black leather upholstery. The multi-function leather-wrapped steering wheel boasts cruise control buttons and audio-control switches. The driver is presented with two deep primary meter binnacles, with a speedometer on the left and a tachometer on the right. The stereo head unit appears to be factory, while the rest of the interior looks in excellent condition, befitting a car of this mileage.
Under the long hood is a 2.4-liter inline four-cylinder engine that is naturally aspirated. The owner reports that all maintance has been kept up to date. Those who love to have an added connection to their sportscars will be pleased to note that this 2006 Pontiac Solstice sends power to the rear wheels via a five-speed manual transmission.

Pontiac, founded in 1926 was responsible for many all-American heroes of the automotive scene. Names such as Firebird, GTO, Bonneville, Tempest and Fiero are still held in high regard today. Sadly, the Pontiac division was shut down by GM in 2010. In their later years, they continued to create an interesting car every now and then. The Solstice was one of them, a compact two-door convertible sports car that was made between 2006 and 2010. That’s what we have here, a 2006 Pontiac Solstice Roadster from San Antonio, Texas. It’s got a 2.4-liter Ecotec 4-cylinder, a convertible top, and is rear-wheel drive as you’d expect from any self-respecting sports car. With just over 35,000 miles on the odometer, this curio could be yours!

Although Pontiac is no more, we can fondly look back on the brand's greatest hits. While the most prolific is the Firebird/Trans Am, the Solstice is one of their more recent hits. Produced between 2005 and 2010, this two-seat sports car sold 7,000 units within the first ten days of being announced. This was a shock for Pontiac, as they had planned to make 7,000 units for the entire year! The final production figure of the Solstice stood at 65,724 units, once again an impressive volume for a sports car. This 2007 Pontiac Solstice GXP Convertible is of the higher-performance GXP variant and comes to you with just 26,500 miles on the odometer. Read on to find out why it should be your next toy.
Born from the desire to be free of corporate constraint, the Pontiac GTO is a lesson in defiance. It shows what happens when men figure out a way to rage against the corporate machine in a creative way. You see, General Motors had banned their auto divisions from competing in auto racing for some ridiculous reason. However, executives such as John Z. DeLorean, Russ Gee and Bill Collins knew that this was outrageous. They felt the desire to find a way to buck the rules, and they easily found it. Because why not give customers a turn-key racer that’s thinly veiled as a street car? After all, you can’t control how your customers use your car once they’ve paid the purchase price and driven off the lot, can you? Hence, the GTO was born, with a name inspired by a Ferrari legend. Today, we have a 1965 Pontiac GTO for sale from Evansville, Wisconson. This symbol of rebelliousness is available with under 100,000 miles on the clock, a 389 Tri-Power under the hood and a Muncie 4-speeder taking care of shifting. If you want it in your life, don’t waste any more time, talk to us!

Pontiac’s Firebird is an iconic car. It was made between 1967 and 2002 across four generations, and the sister car of Chevy’s Camaro. Notably, the second and third generations of Firebird had significant screen presences, in the shape of featuring prominently on Smokey and the Bandit (second generation), as well as Knight Rider (third generation). It’s no surprise, given that the second-generation’s muscular and pumped-up looks lent itself well to star alongside Burt Reynolds, while the third generation’s sleek computer-graphics esque design was perfect to be the car of the future – talking and all. Today, we’ve got a nice second-generation 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am for sale from The Villages, Florida. This machine has got the Oldsmobile 403ci V8 under the hood, and rolls on a set of aftermarket Snowflake wheels. We’re also informed that the interior has been reupholstered.
Mercedes-Benz and its lineup of SLs have always been and will be iconic; the automotive marque's pinnacle open-top grand tourer has been the car to have for eons when you want to experience authentic open-top motoring. The 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560SL represents the marque's most popular model; this neat example is reported to have just 90,850 miles on the clock and is a true motoring icon.
