Nice car, but it is a PONTIAC

 

Salaam Waseem..keefak? :-P

Looks pretty cool, but I couldn't do a two seater.

I would just keep the tC and slowly mod it.

 

I really like how it looks. I certainly wouldn't confuse it with anything else on the road. Performance: I know nothing about, but it seems like a fun little roadster.

My only doubt is the fact that it is a Pontiac. Not always the case, but chances are it won't be too reliable.

 

i wouldn't do it

 

wait until next year when the saturn sky comes out, thats what i'm doing

 

i think ths saturn looks better

 

1 word, pontiac
the only pontiac i would purchase is the GTO. now that is a mean car

 

what is the saturn sky?

 

They're both GM and probably an very similar chassis's - I wouldn't be surprised if they were the same, really. I could be wrong though.

 

Hmm... The Saturn looks a lot like the Pontiac... Both are GM... Could it be that GM made 1 car, but rebadged it as two? No... Not GM...

 

this should be moved to the Other vehicles section

 

the Saturn Sky and the Pontiac Solstice are indeed the same car. same chassis, same engine, same transmissions...just a different "shell"

and the Pontiac GTO---is one of those long-lasting RWD GM cars from Australia, rebadged to sell here in the US as a Pontiac, and as a Vauxhall in Europe (originally a Holden Monaro)

 

wa-alakum asalam. im good. thank you.. ya the saturn sky is nice realy nice but its like 5 g's more i think. i love the tc bbut i really want stick and the solstice is classy and sporty for good price, what sucks is that its a saturn thats like kia

 

solstice and sky are the same, based off the kappa platform which also houses the vauxhall lightning - the sky is basically a rebadged vauxhall and is MUCH sexier than the solstice, the "shell" as it was referred to is so darn ugly on the solstice!!

 

i agree the sky is a lot niceir, ok change the topic to the saturn sky. what you guys think should i sell tc and get that or what... any recomendations

 

oh and anyone "concerned" about the performance, handling, etc. needs only to look at the reviews and comments about the kappa platform. basically you would have to have no previous knowledge of building a vehicle to screw it up! the base sky will be 170hp / RWD / less than $25k - the redline of course will be the "must own" version when it's released. i can't wait

 

when is it supposed to be released?

 

Q1 (probably feb or march) for the standard version, if you want to wait for the redline they're shooting for a LATE Q2 release <-- actually that is good news for me, since I couldn't afford it any sooner, it will probably be about $27-28k (no one needs to preach about the other cars you can get for that price, if you want a 2 seat roadster and in imho the best looking one, NEW, that is your best option).
