Solstice: Back to the Basics of Driving Excitement: Back to the Basics of Driving Excitement
Styling trends are set by defining moments and unforgettable exercises in design. Such was the impetus for the Pontiac Solstice, debuting in 2002 as a show car and in 2005 as a celebrated production model. Pontiac put all its action-oriented resources into the two-seater with plenty of punch and trend-setting style, and Solstice came along for the ride, from the moment GMs car czar Bob Lutz laid eyes on the winning design to the development of the production version. No wonder the Solstice has been recognized as a purely modern roadster. The rear-drive two-seater is unmistakable from any angle, its exterior a work of styling simplicity, poised for action. Now its the showpiece of its platform, to be shared by other exciting GM models. The crowd-pleasers story is thoroughly documented in Solstice, including exclusive interviews with the executives, designers and engineers that made the Solstice a timeless machine. Never-before-seen photographs and illustrations complete the documentary.

I purchased several times told then was not in stock from amazon, did research and From my sources this book was never released? which is a shame, there is another book and also the Witzenburg Book which is about the Solstice and has Chapter on Saturn Sky. I once drove a stickshift black Solstice and test drove a Saturn Sky stickshift(i believe turbo as well). Would love to have owned this book if it existed, please leave review so others know book does not exist/was not published thank you.
