So i got a new car a while back......, finally got to take some pics =) (big file size warning) Options

[forkee]

some of you may already know but just filling the rest in....























yes it does have a top, but this is california....


heres me looking like a retard. im just stoked really...


its the saturn sky redline in midnight blue. i got the automatic version because with turbo, its quicker than manual. some 260 hp. ive read the forums as well as magazines saying it goes from 0-60 in 5.2 sec. ive already gone on a killing spree of various toyota, hondas, acuras, mazdas, mitsubishis, nissans, and some loser in a g35 that was just asking for it lol. feels so good to accelerate and leave them trailing behind...haha. damn ricers.... i dont think i could ever go back to 100 hp.

as for the celica, its for sale. $5000 for stock cept cf hatch. 14" rims, brand new tires. 6 disc stock cd changer. 2 way long range alarm with lcd pager. power door locks. 95k miles, stick shift ST. cross-drilled/slotted front rotors. reverse indiglo gauges (i think its the otto brand). my dad will be using it for work and such so im not really in any hurry to sell. it comes turbo ready with a supra walbro fuel pump and pretapped oil pan. im selling my turbo kit seperate for $1000. message me here if interested. my inbox is full so i need to go through it and delete some old stuff.

Man, is it just me or is that thing a bit ugly? It has some nice stats though. You should Autocross that thing. Nice buy though, Redline is the way to go.

Offtopic (since you said your inbox was full), where did you get your rotors? Online somewhere? Thanks.

Have fun with your new toy!

I drive my dads all the time and it is not ugly. Def gets some attention.

[CaliJeff]

ehh, i think it's a chick car.

Who makes those? :S. I've never even heard of them before

Saturn makes it.

I think it looks great. Before when i only saw the sky in pictures, i didn't think it was all that great, but when i saw it in person, i thought it was really nice. Plus you can have a lot of fun putting your top down

its a saturn sky...so saturn.
there is also a pontiac version, the solstice. i like the sky better.

[goferris]

you should sell me those rims off your old celi.
i like the new car. you should talk to madmods. he has some sweet mods on his solstice. i know they aren't the same but they are close enough.

I was meaning the evil-overlord company of Saturn, which turns out to be General Motors. (Just as Scion is Toyota's bitch). Seeing as it has "Saturn" written on the darned thing, I would have been a bit silly if that's what I meant

Automatic

nice ride man... looks like a great upgrade... must be nice to have that 250hp and no weight

ok i finally got my inbox down to 70% full so thats clear for now....

i think its just the shots. it really is a beautiful car. it even borrows some lines from the corvette (not to mention the hood opens the same way, backwards) and the lower back end of a ferrari.

i got my rotors awhile back from a group buy on celica.net, yea....THAT long ago lol

I drive my dads all the time and it is not ugly. Def gets some attention.

it gets attention ALL the time. the first day i took it out some dood was passing by with his head stuck out of his car. head literally out the window and turned around while the car was going forward on the freeway lol. the best was when some chick in the car next to me said "nice car" to me with her bf driving her in an integra. he drove off like a bat out of hell all wreckless. i could tell he was pissed

i have to put a car cover on it when i go to school and valet it whenever i can. really tedious and time consuming in my opinion....

you should sell me those rims off your old celi.
i like the new car. you should talk to madmods. he has some sweet mods on his solstice. i know they aren't the same but they are close enough.

if you want i could quote you a price on shipping. it might be alot though because they are heavy.

ive actually seen madmods on the sky/soltice forums. his ride looks beautiful. way better than stock ones, especially now that he painted that ferrari front end of his.

Automatic

yes yes, i know. the manual was nice too. its a short throw shifter and a 5 speed just like the celica so i felt at home with it. i just wanted a gas pedal i can mash to the floor now and just keep on going

nice ride man... looks like a great upgrade... must be nice to have that 250hp and no weight

thanks! i think it has 230 something to the wheels but ill probably get a bsr ecu tune to bring it more to the 270 target that im aiming for. the new porsche reaches 60 in 5 seconds flat. gotta try and match that just for $hits and giggles

[SlickRick]

nice car. but i why an automatic i am sure there was more to getting it auto tham just being "faster" that kinda defeats the purpose. but over 30k for a Saturn? i am sure u could have chosen many other cars, but none the less a good looking car, and to be honest it puts the solstice to shame.

nice car man i was strongly considering that car before i got my e92 . The only reason i got the bmw is cuz after gettin out of my Z i realized i wanted a bigger car.

Anyways enjoy the car and isnt boost the best thing in the world. Enjoy modding that little beast


Btw ignore the few haters we have here

if the price is right i'll take em. hell i may even be worth a trip out to cali. give me a price. shipping would be to 84043. grey hound would be the best way to ship something like those though. if so i would use the provo UT terminal. LMK
thanks
