Tradin In?

Im debating when i get back from this deployment that I might trade my jeep in for a newer vehicle. as of now I'm looking for something that is better on gas, as of now I have my eye on the 2009 Pontiac Solstice Coupe. I liked the older ones besides the fact that they are convertible, so when they began the production of the coupe I became interested, and that they have the 2.2 N/A motor and the 2.0 Turbo'd motor, which i would get the Turbo'd one. I have about 7 months+ to think about it.

My dad owns a Solstice. It's a really fun car to drive and what I like about it is that when you put the top down it goes into the trunk so you don't see the top like you do most convertables do.
He get's asked all the time what kind of car it is and if he paid $60,000.00 for it. I don't know why everyone seems to go with that number but people that don't know cars think it's some really expensive car. He bought it when they very first came out and when he went out of the country on a business trip I took it out and people just stared at me which suprised me. Including a guy in a Ferrari 355 that gave me a thunbs up.

I will agree with 98CamaroZ28 though, I think the Sky looks better.
