    Saturn Skys at the assembly plant

    I saw a white one in Rochester right before New Years. The "fast feedback" or pool vehicles don't get manufacturer tags. Nothing's been delivered to a paying customer yet.

    Saturn Skys at the assembly plant

    No it won't be available that soon. The Solstice GXP will be available around the fall and the Redline will probably follow a year from now. The engine is actually a 2.0L as someone else said. silverspeed- There is supposed to be a hardtop Solstice in the future, not official word on that...

    The Caliber SRT-4 is FWD, not AWD. Read the thread in the Automotive News Forum with the release from DCX.

    Coilover's

    KW's, hands down. They offer some damping adjustability and from everyone with VW's that I've heard reviews from they have great quality.

    Budget: $20,000 what car would you buy?

    The Solstice can be ordered as a base model or with the Z0K "Club Sport" package. (Springs, shocks, swaybars, crank windows, no A/C - $1200) The Solstice can be ordered as a base car for $20k, but since there is high demand for it you'll likely find only highly optioned models on a lot.

    More HP and more torque then an S2000, nearly the same curb weight, and almost 50/50 weight distribution. Yeah, I think it will be fun.

    Cool Engine Swap Thread

    If you're looking for cool engine swaps just look at the Grassroots Motorsports $200x dollar challange. We put a GM Quad 4 in a 1987 CRX.
