Q: Why doesn’t GM make a Saturn Sky coupe not just a convertible?
It would be a good idea to do so, since some people prefer a coupe over a convertible, like myself.

Doesn’t it cost more money to build a convertible than building a coupe? I don’t see, why they wouldn’t build one.

I’m thinking about purchasing a Mustang or a Saturn Sky, if GM made a Saturn Sky coupe, then I would definitely get a Sky.

A: The market segment that the Sky is built for is the 2-door 2-seat roadster market. It is supposed to compete with other similar type of cars such as the Mazda Miata, Honda S2000, BMW Z4, etc… People buy these type of cars because they want a convertible.

These type of cars aren’t very high volume sales cars, so there most likely would be more cost involved if they had to design/produce two different versions which would lower their profit margins. This might be why you don’t see any coupe version of the cars listed above, yet you will find coupe/convertible version of higher end cars such as the Chevrolet Corvette or Dodge Viper (since higher end cars tend to be sell with higher profit potential).

Also the Sky isn’t really comparable to the Mustang. I do realize that part of the reason that you bring up the Mustang is because it’s available as both a coupe and a convertible. The Mustang is a 2-door coupe that they modified to also be made as a convertible also, while the Sky is a purpose-built 2-door convertible.

Q: 2009 Pontiac Solstice GXP Convertible, 2009 Saturn SKY Red Line, or Opel GT?
can you tell me the mpg?
top speed?
and which you would get ?

A: i hav no i dea about the opel. top speed for the solstice and skyy is gonna be 160 mph highway gas mileage is 25 mpg city gas mileage is 19 mpg.

Q: salvage saturn sky pricing?
i have a friend who owns a body shop and he is going to try to get me a saturn sky convertible. i was wondering, with a medium amount of damage, whats this gonna cost me. and please dont tell me that salvage cars are junk. this is for a first car for my son. he doesnt need something perfect.

A: The main reason you should not buy a salvaged car for your son is because they are not safe.
Would you let your son ride a motorcycle? That is essentially what you are doing by buying a salvaged car…especially something like a Sky, which doesn’t have the greatest safety ratings to begin with.

Now to your question – Salvaged cars are hard to value because they always depend on the amount of damage. If a Saturn Sky was salvaged, it really is ‘a lot’ of damage and not ‘medium’ amount of damage. They Sky has only been out for a couple of years, which means that damage had to have been at least $13K (or 70%-80% of the car’s residual value). It could possibly be even higher.

Too hard to tell what it is worth without getting it inspected, but don’t pay anything close to blue book or black book value.
Plus, like the above poster stated, make sure you can insure the car before you purchase. Most carriers will not insure salvaged vehicles.

Q: How is Saturn Sky for a first car?
I will be getting my licence soon, and I am starting to look for a new car, and I was wondering how Saturn Sky would be as a first car. If it wouldn’t be that great, could you please recommend something for a first car? I am looking for a coupe, or even more preferrably a convertible.

I’ve looked at the Hyundai Tiburon, Mustang, Saturn Sky, and other cars on Ebay. Which of these (or matching criteria) would be a nice first car?
Thanks, you guys are so nice

A: If you can afford the insurance, I suppose the Sky is okay. They are a very nice car. Since you are just starting out with your driving experience, why not look for something sporty with a V6, or 4 cylinder (for lower insurance rates). I am curious to know why you require a new car, as the first car too? Don’t you think it would be better to get a good nice looking used car to gain the needed experience, then step up to a new car?

I saw the Pontiac Solstice, and the Saturn Sky. They are both based on the Opel GT of Europe. The Pontiac starts out at $22,000 and some change. The Saturn starts out at $25,000. Isn’t that a bit expensive for a first car? All are very nice cars, but do you need a car like that to start out with?

Q: I like Corvette and Saturn Sky but they sit only two. What Make is Convertible, has sporty look and four seats

A: There is:
Porsche 911 Carerra Cabriolet
Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet
Audi A4
BMW 330ci
Ford Mustang
Mercedes CL and CLK
Audi TT
Mitsubishi Eclipse
VW Eos
VW Golf Cabrio
Mini Cooper

Q: I need to know about the Saturn Sky?
Does anyone know if you can get a 2006 saturn sky that is not a convertible stock. Also same question for the 2006 pontiac solstice

A: No.
The Solstice and Sky are only made as convertibles.

Q: I was thinking about getting a Saturn Sky as a car, but…?
…all of the ones I’ve seen are only convertibles! Are there only convertible sky’s or any like a regular, hard top car?

A: Yes convertible only…Chevy will honor and keep making parts for 20 years…At least that’s what cnn said today..

Q: Which car would have the highest insurance rates out of these?
1. 2001 Audi TT Coupe 33,000 miles
2. 2007 Saturn Sky Convertible 8,603 miles
3. 2006 Volkswagen Jetta 31,000 miles
4. 2007 Scion tC 39,000 miles

I am 16, and these are all stick shifts, and when i get one of these 4 in December, i think the one of the biggest factors for me at least comes down to insurance costs.

A: The Audi would most likely have the greatest insurance costs, First because it is a more expensive car to begin with, second that car has only two seats, Third because of the fact that your young any car will be be expensive. The cheapest will most likely be the VW or the scion . The transmission has nothing to do with the cost of insurance. But the only way to know what you will actually pay for each car would be to call your insurance agent.

Q: saturn sky question and bmw z4 question?
my dad wants a roadster convertible and im wondering how good the bmw z4 is and saturn sky what roadster would be the best one for around 35 grand?

A: I would avoid the Sky. It is NOT too new to assess reliability, as another poster stated. Consumer Reports, the industry’s leading watchdog of reliability in brands, gives the Sky it’s worst possible grade for reliability, a poor(solid, black dot). Here is a sample of what they say about the vehicle in general….

“Saturn’s version of the Pontiac Solstice uses the same standard 2.4-liter, four-cylinder engine that sounds and feels harsh. The base Solstice we tested exhibited handling that is fairly agile and easy to control, and had a tolerable ride. The cabin has unimpressive fit and finish and lacks storage cubbies. Folding the soft top is a multi-step process that requires getting out of the car. The trunk has virtually no storage space”.
Highs-Acceleration, steering.
Lows-Top design, luggage space, fit and finish, shifter, noise, access, controls, driving position, visibility, reliability.

To fit your price range, your Dad will probably need to buy a used Z4, but they are excellent vehicles and worth it. He should also consider such outstanding options as the Mazda MX-5(Miata), or the Honda S2000. Good luck.

Q: Saturn sky? Mazda Mx-5 miata? 4 seats? Help!?
I really like these cars but they only seat two people
Is there a car like this (same look/price) that seats 4?
I want a convertible car, i like the vw eos but it is a foreign car and my parents wont buy me a foreign car period. ughh
is there anything else? (not a mustang, those are cheap)
thanks!

A: The Mazda MX-5 is also a foreign car.
Foreign cars the best cars and most reliable. I don’t know why your parents said you can’t get a foreign car.
Ford owns 33.5% of Mazda, but Mazda’s are still Mazda’s and still foreign cars. They do not use any Ford made or designed parts.

The only other 4 seat American convertible besides the Mustang are the Chrysler Sebring and Pontiac G6.

Q: Which convertible do you like better?
Saturn Sky, Ford Mustang GT convertible, or Cadillac Xlr

A: Looks————XLR
Performance and Affordability—–Stang
Saturn is and will always be saturn….don’t get the sky. Crap, just looks nice and that probably won’t even last long.

Q: ????Ssiren….Who is going to buy her new Saturn Sky?

Merry Christmas Ssiren don’t forget to give Blue

A: why would i want to buy a planet and then drive it?

Q: Poll: what is your dream car?
ok hypothetical situation: say a family member decides to buy you a brand new car just for the heck of it, the only limit you have is 45,000 dollars, what car would you get? what year? and what color? me, i would go to the nearest Saturn dealership (ha i work at one, yes employee discount) and i would buy a Chili Pepper Red,2007 Saturn Sky Convertible, with the works, so, what would you buy?

A: A 1962 Ford Fairlane 500.

Q: I’m looking for a cheap sexy 2 seater convertible..?
=) my dream is to eventually get a MR2 spyder. ahh that’ll be the day! =D but for now.. i have to settle with something cheap. preferrably 6k and under. i reallllllllllly really love the s2000 but its hard to find a cheap one =/ do you know of any? my mom has a 2009 saturn sky redline edition, its a convertible 5 speed. that and the other two are the only two seater convertibles that i really know of and she likes to rub it in my face!. anything would be greatly appreciated =) thank you in advance.! remember.., CHEAP!
ughhhh miatas are so uglyyyyy! dont the skys look like the bat mobile.. ahh hah
oh and cant forget about the nissan 350z =( i wish i was rich.

A: you can find a decent Audi TT for about $8k. You also might be able to find a 92-96 LT1 powered C5 Corvette for $6k. Other 2 seater convertibles that come to mind are Miata’s, Fiero, Bmw Z3 and Z4.

some nice convertibles that you might want to look for under $6k, but 4 seaters, can be 98-02 Camaro and Firebird and 99-04 Mustangs.

Q: Buying a new Convertible Car?
This is a question especially for girls. I’m planning to buy a new car, mostly a convertible..Which out of the following 5 convertible wud impress u the most?

Pontiac Solstice
Mazda Miata MX5
Ford Mustang
Saturn Sky
Toyota Solara

If none of the above, which one wud u suggest?
And which color will be the best? My budget is less than 30k. Honda S2000 goes above the budget

A: Seeing as you are a guy, I would probably only be impressed if you were driving the Ford Mustang convertible. Another one I would recommend is the new Pontiac G-6 hard top convertible (still right around your price range). Those are the most “manly” convertibles that come to mind!

Q: 2 seat convertible question..?
so out of these cars, what would u say would be the best car to buy used, with 50K miles on it

http://www.goldenstatecars.com/

BMW Z4
BMW Z3
Audi TT (almost 2 seater)
Honda S2000
Pontiac Solstice or Saturn Sky

let me know what you think, the years would be around because i want it under 20K
and for the Sky and Solstice, of course the 2006 version being its the only one
and Z4 2003 being thats when it came out

A: I would say the S2000 for reliability , The Z4 for comfort and the Saturn or the Pontiac for looks. And i’m not to fond of the old TT and the Z3 isn’t any better So I would go with the Z4 out of what you listed but I’m personally a Porsche guy and have owned three now and for what your looking for see if you can find a nice boxter.

Good Luck

Q: Any good Sports car for big & tall drivers?
I’m 6′9″, 350 lbs and I love sports cars. I’m sick of being stuck driving my SUV or Truck around all the time, and want something I can have some fun with.

I currently have a 3000GT VR4 Spyder, and I fit in it fine and I love it, but I’m looking to pick up another fun car.

I used to own a Datsun 280zx and I fit in this fine too. I also recently test drove a C4 corvette and I fit, but not if I was wearing long pants- that close.

I don’t fit in the cadillac CTS, and I don’t fit in the Viper. I also don’t fit in my favorite car- the Saturn Sky, nor do I fit in the solstice (clearly), or the Mazda Miata.

a two door convertible is my first choice, but I can probably give up on the convertible part , but it’s got to have some level of rarity or prestige- I don’t think a camaro or mustang is quite what I’m looking for, although I do fit! Initially I was going to say it has to be between 5 and 20 years old, however, I’ll even relax that- ANY year sports car that is good for big and tall drivers!

Thanks!

A: Well…
I personally believe the Aston Martin V8 vantage is Extremely Comfortable for Big and tall Drivers.
It has a vast amount of legroom and is very spacious.
Check it out!

Q: Reccommend me a car!! (possibly convertible)?
Ok, this is my third car i will be purchasing. I am 18 years old and have so far had a – Ford fiesta 1.3 and a Ford fiesta 1.6 Zetec.

I am looking to spend more money on a car now, and have more of a classy car. I am looking to spend around £6,000

I found some older BMW convertible 320’s etc. that were around 6,000 but the insurance was sky high for convertibles.

I would love to find a convertible car that i will be able to get insured on.

I am willing to go without the car being convertible and have a hard top bmw or other nice make..

All ideas are appreciated. If you need any more details please ask..

A: Try an old Audi 80 convertible.
Classic and cheap to insure.

Q: SKY vs. SOLSTICE vs. ECLIPSE?
Alright, so which would you choose the Saturn Sky, Pontiac Solstice, or Mitsubishi Eclipse(hardtop or convertible?)??? Why???
Which has better resale value?

A: The Saturn and Pontiac are pretty much the exact same, just with different styling cues. Personally, my preference is the Saturn because it looks exotic and Saturn has the best dealers in the world (they will even drive to you if you want to test drive!) The Mitsubishi I think is just plain old ugly, not to mention the massive blindspot lurking on the convertible top. Plus, the new Lancer is determining if Mitsubishi will stay in the states or not, if it doesn’t (most likely looking at the sales of the Lancer), it will leave making finding parts hard and expensive. I would prefer the hard top over soft because it is a quieter ride, less expensive to maintain, cooler, improves image and keeps heat in your car better.

Q: Looking to lease a new convertible -MSRP between $25k and $50k, what’s my best bet?
There’s a lot cars on my list right, but I’m looking to narrow down and find the best buy out there, between mercedes SLK, audi A4, volvo C70, mustang GT, pontiac soltice, saturn sky, nissan z, porsche boxter. which one?

A: For the price the Pontiac Solstice is a great car. But the best bet out of the cars listed is the Mustang GT. Not only is it an incredible car, it will hold its value better than any other.

Q: A Friend sent me this… its quite old.. but hope you like it?
I walked into a Blimpie’s with a buy-one-get-one-free coupon for a sandwich. I handed it to the girl and she looked over at a little chalk board that said “buy one-get one free”. “They’re already buy-one-get-one-free”, she said, “so, I guess they’re both free”. She handed me my free sandwiches and I walked out the door.

A friend of mine bought a new fridge for his house. To get rid of his old fridge, he put it in his front yard and hung a sign on it saying: “Free to good home. You want it, you take it.” For three days the fridge sat there without even one person looking twice at it. My friend decided that people were too untrusting of this deal. It looked too good to be true, so he changed the sign to read: “Fridge for sale $50.” The next day someone stole it.

A: A friend of mine held on to a check for $500.00 for nearly a year. Then she wanted to deposit it in the bank. I noticed it said “void after 180 days” (6 months). When I mentioned that the check had expired, she tore it up before I could stop her. I told her if she had just kept the check she could have gotten the issuer to reissue it. Then I asked her why she waited so long. She said she wanted to wait until she needed the money. I asked her “Well, do you know how long 180 days is?”

She said “Uh, a week?”

I was hanging out with a friend when we saw a woman with a nose ring
attached to an earring by a chain. My friend said, “Wouldn’t the chain rip
out every time she turned her head?” I explained that a person’s nose and
ear remain the same distance apart no matter which way the head is turned.
They Walk Among Us!

I couldn’t find my luggage at the airport baggage area, so I went to
the lost luggage office and told the woman there that my bags never showed
up. She smiled and told me not to worry because she was a trained
professional and I was in good hands. “Now,” she asked me, “has your plane
arrived yet?” They Walk Among Us!

While working at a pizza parlor I observed a man ordering a small
pizza to go. He appeared to be alone and the cook asked him if he would like
it cut into 4 pieces or 6. He thought about it for some time before

eat 6 pieces.” Yep, They Walk Among Us!

They walk among us, AND they reproduce!

A: thats so true and i guess u walked past me today

Q: i found these very amusing so i had to share!?
Some guy bought a new fridge for his house. To get rid of his old fridge, he put it in his front yard and hung a sign on it saying: ‘Free to good home. You want it, you take it.’ For three days the fridge sat there without even one person looking twice at it. He eventually decided that people were too un-trusting of this deal.
It looked too good to be true, so he changed the sign to read: ‘Fridge for sale $50.’

The next day someone stole it!

A: ive heared most of them befor.

and yes the sign free to collector does work.

we recently got a new 3 piece suite and sat the old one on our drive saying free to collector it was there about 3 days and i remembered hearing the story of one being stolen so we changed it to for sale £40 and it got took that afternoon when we went out.

Q: What do you think of these?
A blonde went to the appliance store sale and found a bargain. “I would like to buy this TV,” she told the salesman.
“Sorry, we don’t sell to blondes,” he replied. She hurried home and dyed her hair, then came back and again told the salesman, “I would like to buy this TV.” “Sorry, we don’t sell to blondes,” he replied.
“Darn, he recognized me,” she thought. She went for a complete disguise this time; haircut and new color, new outfit, big sunglasses, then waited a few days before she again approached the salesman. “I would like to buy this TV.” “Sorry, we don’t sell to blondes,” he replied.
Frustrated, she exclaimed, “How do you know I’m a blonde?”
“Because that’s a microwave,” he replied.

A blonde and a brunette jump off a cliff at the same time. Which one will hit the bottom first?
The brunette, because the blonde has to ask for directions.

Two blondes were shopping at the mall. When they were done, they went out to their car, which happened to be an awesome leather-interior convertible, but they realized they had locked the keys in the car. So they both kind of stood there and thought for a while.
Then one of the girls had the bright idea to try to open the car with a coat hanger, so she started fiddling with the lock. The other blonde looked up at the sky, became very worried, and pleaded,
“HURRY, HURRY, IT’S GOING TO RAIN AND WE LEFT THE TOP DOWN!”

Three blondes were taking a walk in the country when they came upon a line of tracks. The first blonde said, “Those must be deer tracks!”
The second blonde said, “No, stupid, anyone can tell those are rabbit tracks!” The third blondie said, “No, you idiots, those are horse tracks!”
They where still arguing ten minutes later when a train hit them.

There was a blonde driving down the road one day. She glanced to her right and noticed another blonde sitting in a nearby field, rowing a boat with no water in sight.The blonde angrily pulled her car over and yelled at the rowing blonde, “What do you think you’re doing? It’s things like this that give us blondes a bad name. If I could swim, I’d come out there and kick your butt!”

A: These jokes are not stupid, they are funny and true. Asminah from another country asked “what’s wrong with blonde hair?” Well it’s not just blonde hair. It’s this lame, princess ego, idiotic pop culture that brainwashes girls to be like Britney, Lohan, or Paris. Most of these Hollywood stars are so far from living reality because they have so much $$ and have no idea what it’s like to struggle. They are full of themselves and their ridiculous fashions. Girls expect to be treated like princesses from these sissy pop icons. Most girls are like the stupid blondes these days regardless of hair color. They can’t enjoy a movie, the beautiful views and atmosphere of the beach or any outdoor setting, eating out, or any event without their stupid big sunglasses and rapid fire texting. They spend hours updating their anti-social network profiles like Myspace and Facebook, posting silly pictures and showing off to the world how special their lives are so they can feed their huge egos. They can’t talk to people face to face, they lack real social skills and even as they grow older they live chaotic selfish lives because they never grow into WOMEN. Girls from other countries should not let our idiotic trends poison there intelligence.

A VERY GOOD EXAMPLE OF THE KIND OF REPRESENTATION WE HAVE IN CONGRESS, TRUE STORY:

A noted psychiatrist was a guest speaker at an academic function where Nancy Pelosi happened to appear. Ms Pelosi took the opportunity to schmooze the good doctor a bit and asked him a question with which he was most at ease.

‘Would you mind telling me, Doctor,’ she asked, ‘how you detect a mental deficiency in somebody who appears completely normal?’

‘Nothing is easier,’ he replied. ‘You ask a simple question which anyone should answer with no trouble. If the person hesitates, that puts you on the track.’

‘What sort of question?’ asked Pelosi.

Well, you might ask, ‘Captain Cook made three trips around the world and died during one of them. Which one?”

Pelosi thought a moment, and then said with a nervous laugh, ‘You wouldn’t happen to have another example would you? I must confess I don’t know much about history.’

Q: 2 seat convertible question..?
so out of these cars, what would u say would be the best car to buy used, with 50K miles on it

http://www.goldenstatecars.com/

BMW Z4
BMW Z3
Audi TT (almost 2 seater)
Honda S2000
Pontiac Solstice or Saturn Sky

let me know what you think, the years would be around because i want it under 20K
and for the Sky and Solstice, of course the 2006 version being its the only one
and Z4 2003 being thats when it came out

A: I would say the S2000 for reliability , The Z4 for comfort and the Saturn or the Pontiac for looks. And i’m not to fond of the old TT and the Z3 isn’t any better So I would go with the Z4 out of what you listed but I’m personally a Porsche guy and have owned three now and for what your looking for see if you can find a nice boxter.

Good Luck

Q: POLL: what one is better ?

Rock star Rap:

When you’re a rock star
You get to party hard
Champagne and caviar
Tricked-out exotic cars

It’s just how I thought it’d be
‘cept the party’s not for me
‘Cause some punk opened a credit card with my ID

Free What? (free credit!) report dot com (I said it!)
That’s the site I’m gonna hit when I go home
They know how credit works
They send email alerts
Now I’m finding out how bad reality hurts

Bike:

Check it out, gas prices blowing up sky high
Ditched my used subcompact for a two-wheeled ride
Now I’m rolling eco-friendly but I still look bad
When the bike store saw my credit they said this was all they had I’m singin’

F to the R to the E to the E to the
C to the R to the E D I T
re to port to the dot to the com
Come on everybody grab your bike and sing along, it’s easy

New Car:

Well I was shopping for a new car, which one’s me
A cool convertible or an SUV?
Too bad I didn’t know my credit was whack
‘Cause now I’m driving off the lot in a used sub-compact.

F-R-E-E, that spells free-
Credit report dot com, baby
Saw their ads on my TV
Thought about going but was too lazy
Now instead of looking fly and rollin’ phat
My legs are sticking to the vinyl and my posse’s getting
Laughed at

Dream Girl:

Well I married my dream girl
I married my dream girl
But she didn’t tell me her credit was bad
So now instead of living in a pleasant suburb
We’re living in the basement at her mom and dad’s.

No we can’t get a loan
For a respectable home
Just because my girl defaulted on an old credit card
If we’d gone to free credit report dot com
I’d be a happy bachelor with a dog and a yard.

Pirates:

They say a man should always dress
For the job he wants, so
Why’m I dressed up like a pirate
In this restaurant?
It’s all because some hacker
Stole my identity
Now I’m in here every evening
Serving chowder and iced tea

Shoulda gone to:
Free credit report dot com

Yee-haa!

I coulda seen this coming at me like an atom bomb
They monitor your credit and send you email alerts
So you don’t end up selling fish to tourists in T-shirts

A: Pirates!!! ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG.

Q: What do you think about these stories. Some are common, others are not?
I walked into a Blimpie’s with a buy-one-get-one-free coupon for a
sandwich. I handed it to the girl and she looked over at a little chalkboard
that said “buy one-get one free”. “They’re already buy-one-get-one-free”,
she said, “So I guess they’re both free”. She handed me my free sandwiches
and I walked out the door. They walk among us and many work retail.

A friend of mine bought a new fridge for his house. To get rid of his old
fridge, he put it in his front yard and hung a sign on it saying: “Free to
good home. You want it, you take it.” For three days the fridge sat there
without even one person looking twice at it. My friend decided that people
were too untrusting of this deal. It looked too good to be true, so he
changed the sign to read: “Fridge for sale $50.” The next day someone stole
it. They walk among us.

One day I was walking down the beach with some friends when one of them
shouted, “Look at that dead bird!” Someone looked up at the sky and said,
“Where?” They walk among us!

I used to work in technical support for a 24/7 call center. One day I got a
call from an individual who asked what hours the call center was open. I
told him, “The number you dialed is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.” He
responded, “Is that Eastern or Pacific time?”
Wanting to end the call quickly, I said, “Uh, Pacific.” They Walk Among Us!

My colleague and I were eating our lunch in our cafeteria, when we
overheard one of the administrative assistants talking about the sunburn she
got on her weekend drive to the shore. She drove down in a convertible, but
“didn’t think she’d get sunburned because the car was moving.” They Walk
Among Us!

My sister has a lifesaving tool in her car designed to cut through a
seat belt if she gets trapped. She keeps it in the trunk. They Walk Among
Us!

My friends and I were on a beer run and noticed that the cases were
discounted 10%. Since it was a big party, we bought 2 cases. The cashier
multiplied 2 times 10% and gave us a 20% discount. They Walk Among Us!

I was hanging out with a friend when we saw a woman with a nose ring
attached to an earring by a chain. My friend said, “Wouldn’t the chain rip
out every time she turned her head?” I explained that a person’s nose and
ear remain the same distance apart no matter which way the head is turned.
They Walk Among Us!

I couldn’t find my luggage at the airport baggage area, so I went to
the lost luggage office and told the woman there that my bags never showed
up. She smiled and told me not to worry because she was a trained
professional and I was in good hands. “Now,” she asked me, “has your plane
arrived yet?” They Walk Among Us!

While working at a pizza parlor I observed a man ordering a small
pizza to go. He appeared to be alone and the cook asked him if he would like
it cut into 4 pieces or 6. He thought about it for some time before
responding. “Just cut it into 4 pieces; I don’t think I’m hungry enough to
eat 6 pieces.” Yep, They Walk Among Us!

They walk among us, AND they reproduce!

A: thats so true and i guess u walked past me today

Q: Any good Sports car for big & tall drivers?
I’m 6′9″, 350 lbs and I love sports cars. I’m sick of being stuck driving my SUV or Truck around all the time, and want something I can have some fun with.

I currently have a 3000GT VR4 Spyder, and I fit in it fine and I love it, but I’m looking to pick up another fun car.

I used to own a Datsun 280zx and I fit in this fine too. I also recently test drove a C4 corvette and I fit, but not if I was wearing long pants- that close.

I don’t fit in the cadillac CTS, and I don’t fit in the Viper. I also don’t fit in my favorite car- the Saturn Sky, nor do I fit in the solstice (clearly), or the Mazda Miata.

a two door convertible is my first choice, but I can probably give up on the convertible part , but it’s got to have some level of rarity or prestige- I don’t think a camaro or mustang is quite what I’m looking for, although I do fit! Initially I was going to say it has to be between 5 and 20 years old, however, I’ll even relax that- ANY year sports car that is good for big and tall drivers!

Thanks!

A: Well…
I personally believe the Aston Martin V8 vantage is Extremely Comfortable for Big and tall Drivers.
It has a vast amount of legroom and is very spacious.
Check it out!

A: A friend of mine held on to a check for $500.00 for nearly a year. Then she wanted to deposit it in the bank. I noticed it said “void after 180 days” (6 months). When I mentioned that the check had expired, she tore it up before I could stop her. I told her if she had just kept the check she could have gotten the issuer to reissue it. Then I asked her why she waited so long. She said she wanted to wait until she needed the money. I asked her “Well, do you know how long 180 days is?”

She said “Uh, a week?”

Q: salvage saturn sky pricing?
i have a friend who owns a body shop and he is going to try to get me a saturn sky convertible. i was wondering, with a medium amount of damage, whats this gonna cost me. and please dont tell me that salvage cars are junk. this is for a first car for my son. he doesnt need something perfect.

A: The main reason you should not buy a salvaged car for your son is because they are not safe.
Would you let your son ride a motorcycle? That is essentially what you are doing by buying a salvaged car…especially something like a Sky, which doesn’t have the greatest safety ratings to begin with.

Now to your question – Salvaged cars are hard to value because they always depend on the amount of damage. If a Saturn Sky was salvaged, it really is ‘a lot’ of damage and not ‘medium’ amount of damage. They Sky has only been out for a couple of years, which means that damage had to have been at least $13K (or 70%-80% of the car’s residual value). It could possibly be even higher.

Too hard to tell what it is worth without getting it inspected, but don’t pay anything close to blue book or black book value.
Plus, like the above poster stated, make sure you can insure the car before you purchase. Most carriers will not insure salvaged vehicles.

Q: How is Saturn Sky for a first car?
I will be getting my licence soon, and I am starting to look for a new car, and I was wondering how Saturn Sky would be as a first car. If it wouldn’t be that great, could you please recommend something for a first car? I am looking for a coupe, or even more preferrably a convertible.

I’ve looked at the Hyundai Tiburon, Mustang, Saturn Sky, and other cars on Ebay. Which of these (or matching criteria) would be a nice first car?
Thanks, you guys are so nice

A: If you can afford the insurance, I suppose the Sky is okay. They are a very nice car. Since you are just starting out with your driving experience, why not look for something sporty with a V6, or 4 cylinder (for lower insurance rates). I am curious to know why you require a new car, as the first car too? Don’t you think it would be better to get a good nice looking used car to gain the needed experience, then step up to a new car?

I saw the Pontiac Solstice, and the Saturn Sky. They are both based on the Opel GT of Europe. The Pontiac starts out at $22,000 and some change. The Saturn starts out at $25,000. Isn’t that a bit expensive for a first car? All are very nice cars, but do you need a car like that to start out with?

Q: Why doesn’t GM make a Saturn Sky coupe not just a convertible?
It would be a good idea to do so, since some people prefer a coupe over a convertible, like myself.

Doesn’t it cost more money to build a convertible than building a coupe? I don’t see, why they wouldn’t build one.

I’m thinking about purchasing a Mustang or a Saturn Sky, if GM made a Saturn Sky coupe, then I would definitely get a Sky.

A: The market segment that the Sky is built for is the 2-door 2-seat roadster market. It is supposed to compete with other similar type of cars such as the Mazda Miata, Honda S2000, BMW Z4, etc… People buy these type of cars because they want a convertible.

These type of cars aren’t very high volume sales cars, so there most likely would be more cost involved if they had to design/produce two different versions which would lower their profit margins. This might be why you don’t see any coupe version of the cars listed above, yet you will find coupe/convertible version of higher end cars such as the Chevrolet Corvette or Dodge Viper (since higher end cars tend to be sell with higher profit potential).

Also the Sky isn’t really comparable to the Mustang. I do realize that part of the reason that you bring up the Mustang is because it’s available as both a coupe and a convertible. The Mustang is a 2-door coupe that they modified to also be made as a convertible also, while the Sky is a purpose-built 2-door convertible.

Q: I was thinking about getting a Saturn Sky as a car, but…?
…all of the ones I’ve seen are only convertibles! Are there only convertible sky’s or any like a regular, hard top car?

A: Yes convertible only…Chevy will honor and keep making parts for 20 years…At least that’s what cnn said today..

Q: 2009 Pontiac Solstice GXP Convertible, 2009 Saturn SKY Red Line, or Opel GT?
can you tell me the mpg?
top speed?
and which you would get ?

A: i hav no i dea about the opel. top speed for the solstice and skyy is gonna be 160 mph highway gas mileage is 25 mpg city gas mileage is 19 mpg.

Q: I need to know about the Saturn Sky?
Does anyone know if you can get a 2006 saturn sky that is not a convertible stock. Also same question for the 2006 pontiac solstice

A: No.
The Solstice and Sky are only made as convertibles.

Q: Which car would have the highest insurance rates out of these?
1. 2001 Audi TT Coupe 33,000 miles
2. 2007 Saturn Sky Convertible 8,603 miles
3. 2006 Volkswagen Jetta 31,000 miles
4. 2007 Scion tC 39,000 miles

I am 16, and these are all stick shifts, and when i get one of these 4 in December, i think the one of the biggest factors for me at least comes down to insurance costs.

A: The Audi would most likely have the greatest insurance costs, First because it is a more expensive car to begin with, second that car has only two seats, Third because of the fact that your young any car will be be expensive. The cheapest will most likely be the VW or the scion . The transmission has nothing to do with the cost of insurance. But the only way to know what you will actually pay for each car would be to call your insurance agent.

Q: saturn sky question and bmw z4 question?
my dad wants a roadster convertible and im wondering how good the bmw z4 is and saturn sky what roadster would be the best one for around 35 grand?

A: I would avoid the Sky. It is NOT too new to assess reliability, as another poster stated. Consumer Reports, the industry’s leading watchdog of reliability in brands, gives the Sky it’s worst possible grade for reliability, a poor(solid, black dot). Here is a sample of what they say about the vehicle in general….

“Saturn’s version of the Pontiac Solstice uses the same standard 2.4-liter, four-cylinder engine that sounds and feels harsh. The base Solstice we tested exhibited handling that is fairly agile and easy to control, and had a tolerable ride. The cabin has unimpressive fit and finish and lacks storage cubbies. Folding the soft top is a multi-step process that requires getting out of the car. The trunk has virtually no storage space”.

To fit your price range, your Dad will probably need to buy a used Z4, but they are excellent vehicles and worth it. He should also consider such outstanding options as the Mazda MX-5(Miata), or the Honda S2000. Good luck.

Q: Saturn sky? Mazda Mx-5 miata? 4 seats? Help!?
I really like these cars but they only seat two people
Is there a car like this (same look/price) that seats 4?
I want a convertible car, i like the vw eos but it is a foreign car and my parents wont buy me a foreign car period. ughh
is there anything else? (not a mustang, those are cheap)
thanks!

A: The Mazda MX-5 is also a foreign car.
Foreign cars the best cars and most reliable. I don’t know why your parents said you can’t get a foreign car.
Ford owns 33.5% of Mazda, but Mazda’s are still Mazda’s and still foreign cars. They do not use any Ford made or designed parts.

The only other 4 seat American convertible besides the Mustang are the Chrysler Sebring and Pontiac G6.

Q: Poll: what is your dream car?
ok hypothetical situation: say a family member decides to buy you a brand new car just for the heck of it, the only limit you have is 45,000 dollars, what car would you get? what year? and what color? me, i would go to the nearest Saturn dealership (ha i work at one, yes employee discount) and i would buy a Chili Pepper Red,2007 Saturn Sky Convertible, with the works, so, what would you buy?

A: A 1962 Ford Fairlane 500.

Q: Are Two Seat Roadster Soft tops safe?
I think I may get a Pontic G6 Convertible of Saturn Sky. The sky is cheaper but is it safer? I need to know. And do the Sky or G6 has a GPS option?

A: Naturally a soft top will not provide the protection of a hardtop. Frames on convertibles are designed to be stronger than hardtops, but that doesn’t help in a rollover. Always wear your seat belt, and insist others in the car do as well. While rollovers happen, they aren’t as common as simple collisions. Always be aware of your surroundings.

I drive a VERY SMALL two seater convertible and I drive as carefully as I would on a motorcycle. WATCH THE OTHER GUY. Have fun with the top down!

Q: SKY vs. SOLSTICE vs. ECLIPSE?
Alright, so which would you choose the Saturn Sky, Pontiac Solstice, or Mitsubishi Eclipse(hardtop or convertible?)??? Why???
Which has better resale value?

A: The Saturn and Pontiac are pretty much the exact same, just with different styling cues. Personally, my preference is the Saturn because it looks exotic and Saturn has the best dealers in the world (they will even drive to you if you want to test drive!) The Mitsubishi I think is just plain old ugly, not to mention the massive blindspot lurking on the convertible top. Plus, the new Lancer is determining if Mitsubishi will stay in the states or not, if it doesn’t (most likely looking at the sales of the Lancer), it will leave making finding parts hard and expensive. I would prefer the hard top over soft because it is a quieter ride, less expensive to maintain, cooler, improves image and keeps heat in your car better.

Q: What are the prices of these cars in CAD?
I’m planning on buying a car soon and would just like to know the INITIAL BASE price of these cars without added options or anything. And if any of these ares or even worth buying! Thanks! Much apreciated.
