I drove a Soltice. IMO, junk. The Sky is a good looking car, but haven't seen one in person, but would imagine that since it comes down the same line, it, too will be just a 'good looking' piece of junk. In this month's Hot Rod Magazine, they drop an LS7 into the Soltice, along with about a $billzilion in upgrades! Makes about as much sense as dropping an LT4 into a 944 Porsche.
Will probably be on the HRPTour.
The Soltice I drove was underpowered, very cramped on the inside, cheap everywhere, no, and I mean NO, storage space, and the canvas top was a real pos. It would need to be priced under $12k for me to even consider it. Then it would be just a desposable car. You could by a nice Miata for the same money as a new Soltice.

C'mon, GM. Keep the Corvette unique.
Time for the C7!
