2007 Saturn Sky Red Line

Quote:

Saturn continues its product revitalization with the 2007 Sky Red Line performance roadster, which is debuting at the 2006 New York International Auto Show. The Red Line, available at Saturn retailers this fall, builds on the Sky�s established performance character, offering even more power and sportier driving dynamics combined with a bold design and driver-focused interior.

The Red Line gets a boost in performance from an Ecotec turbocharged 2.0-liter engine, GM�s first direct injection offering in North America. It produces 260 horsepower* (194 kw) at 5300 rpm and 260 lb.-ft. of torque* (353 Nm) at 2500 rpm, making it GM�s highest specific output engine ever at 2.1 horsepower per cubic inch of displacement (130 hp / 97 kw per liter) and the most powerful engine in the Ecotec family.

meh, you can always get new ones.

Vauxhall Lightning
Saturn Sky
Opel GT etc...

By the way Saturn/Opel/Vauxhall cloning is nearly complete. The new Saturn PreVue concept is just the rebadged Opel Antara concept.

Man, even the press photos, photoshopped...

I think im gonna buy one of these. Looks great and puts out a respectable amount of power, especially for an american car. Looking through some pics though, this one caught my eye. Is that a spoiler I see?

I agree though the chrome wheels will have to go

im sure polished rims will be available, knowing gm probably even standard. so i wouldnt worry too much about the chrome.

True, they put chrome one's on the Aston Martin Rapide Concept at one of the shows in America didn't look very nice.
