    Hey all,

    I guess some one in the UK decided that the stock 260hp solstice was too slow - so now they are going to build this --

    That looks stunning - I hope the next S2000 looks a bit like that!

    I paid $31K USD for my 2008 GXP turbo ( fairly loaded ) -- I know the base model ( no turbo ) starts around $22K USD

    You can also get a Mallet Solstice - 6.0 LS2 V-8 for around $50-60K USD

    I like the looks of the UK version better - but the $$$$ is outta sight
