It's definitely allowed -- the only thing that isn't allowed is posting links to other online auto communities, but I think all of us would definitely want the details, so please do post them.

Not to upstage the meet info... by lhess

but I have noticed that almost every Solstice I have seen on the road has a man 45 or better (just an estimate of age, of course) or a man and woman in that age range. There is one lady here in my burg that owns a red one. She is about 40.
 
I think the reasoning for this is: the first models out were simply too pricey for the younger genre. with a deposit required to pre-order (young people don't do that - instant gratification) and then the dealers were bumping msrp. I think this is a car that will hit the younger crowd as a USED vehicle.
 
Not that I'm really young (37), but about the time I get my current ride paid for, the used solstice prices MAY be down where I'm willing to buy one. I'm not seeing a $25K to $30K car in it right now. Not slamming it, it looks great!!

over on the other solstice related forum..we have many folks under the age of 30 actively participating....your observation may be correct...at the national meet most of the attendees were the above 35 crowd.....we are 50.....
 
most dealers arent requiring a deposit to pre-order....and you can find dealers that arent adding a prem market,,again you just have to do a little research or be willing to go out of your home market area...
 
those that are available or mostly fully loaded...most dealers dont order a strip down model for stock these days anyway regardless of the car....so a fully loaded base sol comes in around 25-26..with the turbo pushing 30-31K....
 
the market appears to be holding strong for the sol....and while there are some available at dealers..usually you will find them at a mark up....if you are willing to wait and order a base sol.....depending on the size of the dealership and his allocations...you can probably see one in 3-4 months.....
