Unless it's the turbocharged version I see it as a beat though. Even the GXP can't keep up with my stealth once u hit 3rd gear.

Meh, I'd rather have a Miata or a S2000 -- still a nice car tho.

Glad to see OP's repeated suckouts vs me are contributing to an impractical purchase.

GXP is supercharged. And the Miata has NOOO STYLE compared to the Solstice. I looked at the Saturn Sky Red as a viable alternative because it looks sort of hot, but still not as good as the Solstice.

I'm really not a car guy and so I don't know the difference. This is an interesting road test vs a Boxster tho, I think it compared favorably given the price difference.

I like it. I would try to learn how to drive a stick on someone else's car though. It would suck to mess it up because you didn't know what you were doing.

To be technical it's a turbine driven supercharger. The Miata is just a car I can't stand for a number of reasons, but they do grip. Isn't the Saturn the same exact car as the Solstice? what's the difference?
