A good start would be using photos of the Solstice that weren't stretched vertically.

Solstice Is an awesome car. My buddy has a yellow one. Looks alright but personally I would pick an S2000 over that any day

got those off the same car site for fairness. If you know a site where I can get the same pics of each in the same color please let me know.

Thanks,

The Solstice is an SUV compared to the S in those photos!

Here you go:



And now you just have to go find a site with a few S2000 photos...

Solstice with a lift kit - hard to beat that.

Stock-for-stock, I think the Solstice has more visual punch. It's a more aggressive, over-the-top design.

However, I still prefer the looks of the S2000.

I agree, the Solstice has more punch. The S2000 has very classic proportions but less interesting details. I love the protrusions behind the driver's head on the Solstice. I love the Pontiac badge and detente on the side of the car. The S2000 lacks those really cool details.

At the same time, the Solstice has some awkward angles. From some views the butt and nose seem too big. The tail lights seem really high with lots of plastic underneath. The S2000, while lacking some of the cool details, never seems to stumbles.

Both are great looking and I'm not sure I could really pick one over the other.
