Combo of things:

-First serious entry in 2-seat <100" wheelbase <$30,000 market from a domestic supplier in 15 years.

-Appear to have done a good job in "the right things" as far as engineering. Much of the problem I have with the Sol/SKY stems either directly or indirectly from "eye candy" syndrome (non functional vents, or roof that operates oddly, mis-configured trunk, slightly-too-big wheels - all things that have no real purpose except they got there because of styling-at-the-expense-of-performance decisions). It seems, though, that they got it right where it counts.

-Driving experience. Very impressive.
