It's for the wife but it is fun to drive and it's the first convertible I have ever owned. Running out of room in the garage now.

No foreign cars for me, it is 2007 Saturn Sky with 50k miles from California so it's never seen bad weather.

I like that car. There was one for sale on Old 23. I was going to stop and look next time by but it was already gone.

From the side view, I couldn't tell if it was a Saturn or the Pontiac version...always liked the Saturn front grill better.
Cool ride!!

This is not the Redline which is the turbo version, but it does run pretty good so I can image what the turbo would do.

When I was still workin, at the shop we did a lot of work for Saturn bodies. For some stupid reason they're limitations on tolerances (like body gaps to within 1 mil, which is equal to 1/1000 of an inch), made all their toolwork cost tons of money. Even Cadillac Motors, which is very finicky for their toolwork, weren't that tight on restrictions.

I think Saturn just ran out of monies.
