Pricing looks good, the onlu other thing that I'd want is the Limited-Slip Differential (and maybe the rims).

I'd like to see the optional spoiler.

 

I saw a one up from base model Solstice at a local dealer with only LSD and AC. Stickerd for 21.3k

 

I still haven't gotten anybody to answer me - is it hard top or not???

And - what is the price for the redline? Will the redline come with a 6-speed manual? Any possibility for nav in the future?

 

i believe the hardtop will be available shortly after launch, at least that's what I was told.

As far as Nav, I dunno, but I'd rather toss an aftermarket unit in anyway, probably the same price as factory, with more features and a nicer display

 

Softtop, Threxx.

I imagine the Redline will use a powertrain similar to the Solstice (since the base powertrains are identical). Solstice GXP uses a 2.0L DI turbo ecotec with 260hp/260lb-ft, and a five speed manual. Unless I hear something in the contrary, I'm going to assume that an uplevel Sky will be basically the same.

Nav is sweet indeed, and available on every car I know of. $3.95 from Rand McNally...

 

Here's the spoiler. Like all spoilers/wings, IMO, it should be left to the ricers.

Not a bad options list. The only ones for me would be LSD and leather (with the audio controls).
