We all know about Pontiac’s Solstice previous models that walked the car-catwalk at SEMA: the Solstice Weekend Club Racer in 2005, the Solstice GXP-R in 2006, and Solstice SD-290 Concept that was paraded last year. This year the Solstice will take the shape of a coupe and will feature under the hood GM’s Performance Parts Stage 2 performance kit , intake kit, and cat-back exhaust system, all of which will raise the number of horsies from 260 to 290.

But that is not all. The new Solstice will also receive a new and sportier suspension system, custom seats, race-style pedals and a whole lot of stuff I don’t care for when buying a car like and iPod interface and exterior graphics kit.

Let’s wait and see what impression this baby will make when it will be unveiled in bolts and screws.
