Promo Wars: Transformers, Pontiacs in Disguise...

Pontiac has begun its promotion of the Solstice GXP roadster that will appear in the new Transformers movie that’s due out July 4th. The promotion is also holding a campaign through Maxim, a magazine geared towards men. By visiting the Maxim website, visitors can enter contests whose prizes include a Solstice GXP and a chance to accompany Transformers star Megan Fox to the movie’s premier.

Other “transformations” that we’ll see in the movie include the likes of Chevrolet, GMC and Hummer vehicles. Pontiac used similar technology in a campaign tied to this year's NCAA men's basketball championship which generated a viewer click-through rate 10 times higher than other Pontiac online promotions. In this high tech digital age, we’re excited to check this remake flick from back in the day. -Click “Read More…” below and check out the Solstice - Transformer wallpapers

Who let the dogs out? Mallet presents "Pitbull" Body Kit for the Pontiac Solstice

In love with Mallet’s 400Hp+ V8 powered Solstice but chopfallen with its humble looks? No problemo; Mallet just turned Pontiac’s “puppy” roadster into a head-turning beast that’ll definitely give you serious street-cred –if that’s your fix. Mallet’s 6-pieces bodykit widens the Solstice a full 4 inches in the front and 5 inches in the rear allowing the use of ultra-wide wheels. Better hold your… dogs though cause the Pitbull Edition Solstices will be built in a limited number of units with the fiberglass upgrade costing around $16,000-18,000 (11.700 – 13.200 EUR). Optionally, you can also special order a carbon fibre upgrade. The “Pitbull” Solstice will make its official debut at the 2007 SEMA Show on October 30. -More images after the jump
