Turbocharged Saturn Sky

[baylorbear98GT]

Have y'all seen this yet? I never imagined myself buying any car except for a V8 rwd drive but this is pretty cool. I mean an american rwd daily driver that can get good gas mileage and run in the 12's? That sounds pretty cool. What y'all think?

looks too solstice/miata ish

 

[Dr.Jay]

Sounds good!

I gotta say, that thing is pretty sweet. and sharp looking. Forget the name and just look at the car. Much better than the miata IMO

It kinda looks like a vette to me, its pretty cool!

 

[c0dy]

I like the gauges

It's better looking than the Solstice.

that car is really sweet... i would pimp it... after i took off the saturn emblem

I see the base model is $24,000. How much for the turbo version, if you know? It weighs just under 3,000lbs, RWD with limited slip, 0.9gs, but top speed is 126 drag limited??

+1 put a lotus one in there :banana:

That car is totally sweet.

I'd definately want to remove the Saturn logo though. It's great they're adding more HP ... I'd seriously consider buying one.

too cool to be a saturn. plus that engine would be nice in a cobalt SS.

12's in the quarter......I don't think so. Mid 13's maybe. It is a nice car though. I'd take one in a heart beat.

im thinking that car + the vettes 7.0 liter 505hp powertrain.... if only i was rich....

It'll only be a matter of time before the mallett guys get their hands on these cars... :thumbsup:

 

[Sp3nis]

A Saturn? :sleeping:

And yeah i thought Solstice too when i first saw the car.

They already have.

Their Solstice already comes with an LS2 with an optional supercharger Looks like a 402 stroker or a 427 is already an option... I think I'd go for the loaded package (maybe performance package...). Low 20's for a solstice/sky and 30k for that package is a steal. You'd have a lotus elise with wayyy more power and tons more comfort.

dun they have the option of an LS7 in there? mallett cars.

eitherway the turbo sky sounds like a nice car, looks better than the solstice, and well it has forged internals so i guess you could up the boost some more.
