Saw my first Pontiac Solstice on the road today. It's a real head turner. I think Pontiac may have a winner here. One thing though. It's really tiny. It will be interesting to see who buys these things. Don't know if your average American build middle aged man is gonna fit in this tiny hot roadster.
I still maintain that tiny cars designed and built to accommodate big Americans is an untapped market for America. People of size opt to drive big vehicles because those are the ones they fit in. They'd buy small fuel efficient easy to drive and park vehicles if they fit in them. The first manufacturer that designs a small vehicle designed for the big and tall among us is going to win big.

This is the reason why the Corvette sells so well. It is designed to fit up to a 6'5" male. I am 6'3" and I will only buy the original US sports car so that I can have comfort along with style.
But the Solstice is a nice ride. The other new auto to keep your eye out for is the Saturn Sky. That will also be a huge hit.

The home loans are useful for people, which would like to organize their organization. By the way, it's not really hard to receive a financial loan.
