Just got my new GM Motion magazine and on pg.33 I'm seeing a "refined" interior! There's a few items that jump out at me!!!!
1. Newer steering wheel with satin brushed metal spokes.
2. Gated shifter, brushed metal knob/gate
3. Onstar Navigational panel (red/orange hue) where 2 HV vents were
4. Completely new radio design, vertical placement
Now I can't say for sure if this is the last time we'll see a change before the production model hit's the street, IIRC, this sure isn't what I remember seeing at the the Detroit show. Looks expensive though?!

The only way I could show them would be to take a pic of the magazine page, unfortunately I don't have a scanner. :(
this magazine doesn't have a web site? is there some URL in the table of contents you could point us to?

Considering you have no way to input those pics: The only way I see it, is you have 2 choices.
1. Use MS Paint and draw us some illustrations.
Don't have MS Paint?
2. Use ASCII art

See? I can draw a rose. The interior of the Solstice shouldn't be too much more difficult

Those pics must be of the original concept car.I wouldn't expect a gated shifter in a production pontiac.That what gives it away to me.The concept had it.They must have used the wrong photo's.The concept steering wheel sucked IMO the production one is much better.

OR,
Those pics may have been from a concept test mule, there were some pics on the net taken by car spies of a pre-production Solstice months ago. It was on a freeway somewhere doing road testing.
From what I have read we should have a good idea of pricing, interior, top(s) etc, by this time next year. Patience young jedi. :smileysqu

Yep, concept interior, but I wish the production car came with the 6-speed that's pictured.
I will be tremendously disappointed if the Solstice doesnt get a boost in power and 6-speed shortly after its launch, GM will need to do something dramatic since the Mazdaspeed Miata (with a turbo) is already out.
