Pontiac says there's less than 70 (of 2000) Pontiac G8 GXPs and 375 Pontiac Solstice Coupes left in stock nationwide. Save the Pontiacs... or at least buy one now while you still can! [Pontiac via Twitter] More »

Pontiac will only build 2,000 Pontiac G8 GXPs and Solstice Coupes, ever, Buick/GMC/Pontiac marketing chief Cheryl Catton just informed us. She also called them potential "collector items." Time to get to the Pontiac dealership while those still exist. More »

Despite the rumored demise of the Kappa platform, and no official announcement on the topic, it appears from these amateur photos the Pontiac Solstice Coupe and Pontiac Solstice GXP Coupe have begun to roll off the Wilmington, Delaware assembly line. We can't say whether these are production-intent cars filling the pipeline to dealers or early builds destined for fleet evaluation, but the little coupe is certainly there, in all its glory. More »

We got a peek at the Pontiac Solstice GXP Coupe concept at the New York Auto Show, but with the death of the Kappa platform basically a done deal we didn't think we'd see much more of it. It appears GM Performance Parts still likes the idea of a closed Solstice, though, and they're bringing their version of a GXP Coupe to the SEMA show this week. More »

You know what they Nick Hogan says about a yellow car. Well apparently GM thinks it's true; earlier we showed you a 2010 Camaro caught in yellow, and now we have footage of the 2009 Pontiac Solstice GXP Coupe driving around in a similar visually scalding hue. We'd rather have the slick little turbocharged 260 HP coupe in a more understated Liquid Silver Metallic, but then we're probably not trolling for the same type of ladies as the Viper-drifting, Supra-crashing Hogan.

We saw it in the flesh a couple weeks ago and were sworn to secrecy, we revealed the explosion of pics and press release at midnight today, but now we've got live and in the flesh shots of the 2009 Pontiac Solstice Coupe. The targa-topped coupe sure is sleek in its fine new enclosed coupe styling, and there was a bit of the swoon on in the room when it was unveiled. The coupe gets the same Ecotec powertrain options from the original style 2.4L with 173 HP as well as the GXP hoontastic 260 HP 2.0L turbo mill. Its possible we're slightly disappointed GM didn't go all out with T-tops, but beggers can't be choosers. We'll be getting the full compliment of live shots up as soon as we can. More »

You knew him as Jazz before he was so handily destroyed — ripped asunder, really — by Megatron. You also knew him as the Pontiac Solstice. But that never quite fit, did it — because he wasn't a convertible in the movie. Well, now he's been truly revealed as a production model, and most importantly as a coupe — the 2009 Pontiac Solstice Coupe to be exact. Yes, that's right, the absolutely gorgeous alt-mode of the Autobot recon man's been brought back to live in a fully production targa-topped coupe — and what else can we say other than we're having a very private robogasm right now — especially over the lines of this sleek little two-seater. Full press release after the jump. More »

Maybe they'll be changing the name of the "GM display" at the New York Auto Show this week to the "Pontiac display." All we know is they'll be doing a lot of driving excitement at the show. We've already revealed the 2009 Pontiac G8 GXP and more importantly, the 2010 Pontiac G8 "El Camino" sport truck. Now they've accidentally revealed the 2009 Pontiac Solstice Coupe in an ad button on the official Pontiac site — further confirming what we'd already told you about the targa-topped Solstice coupe. Awww...poor Pontiac. Well, there had to be a misstep somewhere — and accidentally revealing a hot little tamale like a coupe-roofed Solstice ain't a bad way to misstep. Since we've seen this hard removable-topped coupe in person we can say... More »

The boys from Winding Road talked to GM's chairman of vice, "Maximum" Bob Lutz about the General's plans for the Solstice. While it seems the retractable hardtop bit will remain undone, Lutz again goes for maximum teaseage in handling the Solstice Coupe question. How's this for yes-not-yes verbiage: "If we did it, it would look exactly like the Pontiac Solstice Coupe Concept Car that we had at the '02 show," Lutz said. "It was always our intention to kind of do that." Kind of. So should GM do it? Take our poll. More »
