In a recent Autoweek article profiling the Kappa platform that underpins the Pontiac Solstice, it was revealed that the Kappa platform is far more adaptable than previously thought.
According to the article, "GM is already making it clear that the highly adaptable Kappa will spawn a string of sporty models, on a chassis that can be shortened, lengthened, widened or raised, and built as a convertible or with a fixed roof, depending on the need."
Perhaps the notion of a V8 powered variant of a Kappa-based car (Solstice? Nomad? Future Camaro?) may at least be possible.
