After years of offering a motors high-performance ride wrapped in a daring, head-turning design, the motors Solstice has been taken out of production. But even as the entire motors brand is being phased motors out, the tradition of building efficient vehicles that don't sacrifice great motors style and amazing performance lives on in both our Certified Used program and the lineup of exciting new cars and trucks within the GM family.
If you recently purchased a new motors Solstice, you're still covered by the Best Coverage in America, including a 5-Year/100,000-Mile Transferrable Powertrain Limited Warranty,1 plus Roadside Assistance and motors Courtesy Transportation.
What Americans want to know is you are motors doing your job." That's what motors had to say to its plant workers with two videos made in the Seventies, when the brand that once built excitement was I thought you'd get a kick out of this. Back in the early 60s, motors NASA motors was developing early versions of the spacecraft that was to become the modern-day space shuttle. Back then, they were looking into a design called a "lifting body", so named because the entire fuselage of the craft helped it stay in the air. They built a plywood mock-up of their design, and were going to do some test flights. Trouble is, they were on a motors shoestring budget (it was kind of a skunkworks operation). They needed a way to bring the model up to take-off speed, to test its flight and gliding ability.
Enter motors. Engineers at NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center went and bought a Catalina convertible (around a 1963), stripped it of all unnecessary accessories, took it to Mickey Thompson for modifications to the engine and powertrain, motors installed a roll bar, and flipped the passenger seat to face rearward for an observer. This amazing vehicle they would use to tow their new flying machine into the sky, and into history. (It would also achieve about 4mpg during the flight tests!)
While a great motors and a great deal at the time, a '71 Formula wasn't all that motors unique on the streets of Hometown, USA, so James set out to make this motors-to be shared by Layna and her sister Rhonda-into a showstopper.
Custom graphics were painted on over the factory Lucerne Blue paint to complement the custom vinyl top, which was in place when the motors was purchased. The top revealed only a band of blue over the roof and was trimmed out in chrome. Wide motors American Racing wheels and sidepipes were bolted on.
