Price was right, pulled the Solstice wheels and added a set of dipped SKY wheels.

Not a Turbo

I got this thing for under $10K before tax so I took it, wife loves it so the Kizashi is gone. Always liked the Solstice alot, it's just the SKY looks so much better.

I kinda like owning two orphan brands, maybe I'll look for a clean Oldsmobile next.

How many damn cars are you going to put in your driveway? By the way I like it, thanks for letting me drive it.

Darn - that's a fine ride. Looking at the pictures, however, remind me of where my brother lives in Henderson, Nevada. Those pictures could have been taken in his driveway ..........

Nice ride.

How big of a power difference is it between the turbo version and the non turbo version (I never really followed GM cars before my saturn - so I dont really know)

Hmmmm ..... 300hp tweaked and tuned .....

Wonder if I could shoehorn that engine into my '93SW2? Sure would embarass some of the local "rice-burners" ......

Hehehe that thing would fly - you might beable to take on abit more than rice burners then, youll just have to keep tires on the front of it.

Two of the only cars I actually regret not keeping were both GM cars. One was a 1987 Camero IROC Z-28 with a T top. And an exhaust system big enough to throw tennis balls all the way up to the exhast valves. It would set off every car alarm with in 50 feet.
And a 4 cylinder Pontiac Fiero. A 5 speed car. It looked like a baby Ferrari and was a ball to drive.
You can't keep them all although I try, but they were both nice cars. I actually sold the Fiero to by the Camero.
When my second wife left she took the Camero. I miss the danged car.

I was oh so close to buying a new black Fiero GT ............ oh so close. I evan took an red IROC-Z home thinking about one of those. Bought a new silver 2.8L S-10, I needed a small truck.
