The Pontiac Solstice has bagged an award just lately. It was named the most serious car of the Year for 2006. This award was given by Edmunds.com. Edmunds.com is one of the premier online resources for info about autos and cars and other stuff related to the automobile industry. This award is also a part of the fifth annual Edmunds.com Consumers’ Most Wanted car awards.
Last November, the Pontiac Solstice already received the same award. Now this time, when the consumers judged vehicles, it again bagged that same title. This exemplary car has gained and took almost half the consumers’ votes. It was followed by the Honda Civic, and the Chevrolet Corvette.
According to Karl Brauer, the editor in boss of Edmunds.com,’It’s always fascinating to tap into the minds of purchasers. These annual awards provide understanding of consumers’ collective impressions while the Edmunds.com Forums and our social networking web site CarSpace give glances into individual opinions each day of the year.’ Brauer also added,’The domestic automakers made some real traction this year among the purchasers who voted. Domestic vehicles won twice as many awards as they did last year - a good sign for Chrysler, Ford, and GM.’
The Pontiac Solstice is a creation of General Motors and has been in production beginning this year. It’s a sports auto and holds just one body style - a roadster that holds 2 doors. It’s been built using the FR Kappa platform and its power comes from a 2.4 litre Ecotec I4 engine. Its competitors include the Nissan 350Z, the Honda S2000, the Mazda MX-5, and the Chrysler Crossfire. This automobile has been designed by Wayne Cherry.
