A female coworker of mine has a Solstice & man that interior is cramped unless you're a small person. I'm 5'10" & I was chewing on my knees.

I'm a big fan of the saturn sky redline. We don't get them in Australia unfortunately but I reckon they look great, kinda like a baby viper. The solstice looks a bit too feminine imo

How much do they weigh? If anything over 3K then a Z's 306HP vs the redlines 260 should give you an indication.

redline is a very respectable car. head to head with the z and looks just as nice imo. solstice is the same car as the sky but just alot uglier

Sky Redlines are nothing to laugh at/discount/blow-off. (They're like mini-Vettes...)

Yeah, they can walk the walk no doubt. My ex GF has the Pontiac, the GXP, it runs with my Z, the problem encountered in these cars , IMHO, its hard to take them seriously, they look like wind up toys. albeit, fast toys but toys nonetheless.

All I have to say is "ITS A SATURN"!!! That should answer your questions. No matter how good it looks nor how fast it MAY be it still remains a crapy saturn!

Funny, the Porsche/BMW guys say the same thing to us: "It's a Nissan!"

At some point, I disregard the label and just focus on the mechanicals.

That's because those tools are concerned with image. Nissan is concerned with quality.


Saturn and quality don't even belong in the same sentence.
