Fast Cool Cars          2009 Pontiac Solstice



 

The new hardtop is based on the original Solstice coupe concept
 

2009 Pontiac Solstice Coupe - The coupe’s roof is fixed aft of the B-pillars, with side windows and a rear lift glass for access to the cargo area. For drivers still wanting an open-air experience, the coupe also features a removable roof panel that can be stored in the cargo area. The roof’s structure was strengthened with additional support elements, including an aluminum roof bow attached with aluminum brackets. The hardtop also includes a lightweight sheet molding compound cover affixed to a rigid aluminum frame for additional lightweight support.
