I saw one before in Liverpool, they look amazing!

[MollyHouse]

Have a look at Pontiac Solstice models as they use same underpinnings but imo they look even better.

Just looked them up on Kijiji, they're about $18,000 for a good one..

Mercure Hotel Frankfurt Airport

Sold in the states as a Saturn Sky,

And Korea as the Daewoo G2X

I prefer the Sky to the Solstice, the former inspired by the Vauxhall VX lightning concept designed under the direction of Wayne Cherry though the Sky is attributed to someone else and the latter designed by an American woman. I saw a bright yellow Opel GT in Mallorca when I was over there - suited the climate well.

Saw them in Lanzarote last year. Cool aren't they!

Saw a few of these in Italy and they looked great, kind of like an Elise or VX220 to look at but probably a bit softer and less focussed.

Indeed. Uses a four banger engine though the Americans transplant 7.0 V8s into them. Not a bad car but it didn't get great reviews mainly because it vhas this ridiculous boot which was quite absurd:

Doesn't someone on here have one of these in red?

That Solstice is f**king gopping.

Maybe but this is interesting. the Sky was designed by Franz von Holzhausen (an American)who is now in charge of design at Tesla and this bird designed the Solstice and you'd tell her it was beautiful if you could get in there, wouldn't you?
