Had a fascination with the roadster since seeing TR-6s and MGBs and Spitfires. Put that thought away as impractical for several decades. Suddenly, only 1 girl left at home and 1 at college. Rented a Mustang convertible a couple of years ago in LV, it was the first time I ever drove a convertible and it blew me away. When my 20 year old daughter told me I should get a convertible I told her, "If Saturn ever makes one I will", kind of as a joke.

About a month later I saw a poster at Saturn for the Concept "Curve", I'm still in love with THAT thing that will never exist, and have been a big follower of the SKY ever since. Since last summer on warm evenings and in the VA fall with moderate temps and colorful trees I've REALLY been getting impatient for this to come out.

Just about every item in the poll applies to me! It is the right car at the right time, I'm 53 and who's to say if I wait til I'm 65 what will the world be like then. This is the right time and car.
