Your argument would be valid if A) GM said they were getting rid of the Malibu and now you are forced to get an Accord or Mazda 6, or B) you really wanted a next generation Kappa but now you have to get an S2000 or a Miata. But to say you are getting an Accord or Mazda 6 because the Kappa II is getting axed makes no sense what so ever. It's like saying, Goodbye Toyota. They axed the next gen FJ Cruiser, now my next car will be either a Camaro or a Mustang.
The reality is is that the Solstice and Sky are small volume cars that lose money. I really like them and was hoping the next generation would be improved upon. But GM really needs to focus on their bread and butter cars to make them profitable and, of course, the Volt. Here's hoping that in a few years the Kappa II will be revived.
