I would keep the Z especially if its going to be your only car. I'll admit that the Z doesnt have much storage space, but its got a ton more than the Sky/Solstice.

I'd keep the Z for practability and I doubt the Sky will be everywhere..they won't make very many of them more than likely as far as the RL version is concerned.

They only made 5830ish Ion Redlines total for the run of '04-'07..

I've had 2 saturns, one was a piece of junk while the other held up fairly well. Hopefully the quality has improved but I'd still take a Japanese car.

I say keep the Z, but i'd have to see the numbers of the sky. It's still a saturn. I'll take Japanese any day over a GM.

The Sky isnt as practical as the Z. I also hear there's barely any throttle response and the seats have no lateral support. Z is a much better DD and the difference in performance is not worth the trade. If you're going to trade cars, trade up not lateral.

I think you're excited because the car is new

sky is an attractive car, saw one today parked looks more expensive for the price, but all in all its still a saturn. I would look at an S2000 while not as attractive as the sky, its not a gm car and the stook has much better aftermarket support. I leased an s2000 when it first came out and it was a fun little car.

Even if you take off the saturn emblems, people will still ask you what kind of car it is. Would you like to say saturn? I don't know about you but I wouldn't want to. I mean don't get me wrong the car is badass and what not but is it going to be reliable down the road? we don't know. Most Z owners will tell you, and you know yourself, that the Z is reliable. I would keep the Z.

At least it's RWD, there will be unlimited aftermarket/performance parts soon for this car. I've never been a Saturn fan but finally they've done right by this car. I sat in one and must admit, not bad. The positive side is if you get it and don't like it in the 1st 6 months, you can probably sell it for what you pd{or very close} before they swarm the market. 260hp is not bad numbers.

I'd keep 'em both. You live in Florida so you might as well have a convertible... and hell its turbo'ed from the factory.

I thought the Solstice and Sky were chick cars, like Miatas and anything made from Volvo.

Solstice is an attractive lookin' car. With the right wheels and maybe getting Black, you can make it look pretty aggresive. Definitely a downgrade from the Z. Solstice has no heritage and is kinda the flavor of the month.
