Valistener · 11-07-2006, 01:37 PM

Just wondering if anyone from my area was on this board.

I grew up in Derby, but that was a long time ago.

Live in Overland Park , KS, Received base sky in August What a great Car. Mainly wife's car ,let's me drive it sometimes

mountainsky · 11-15-2006, 12:45 PM

I grew-up in Clay Center KS. and have a sister and several cousins living in the Wichita area, but moved to Colorado Springs in 95. Got my Sky on my 45th birthday (Sep. 17th) best present I ever gave myself.

KS_Sky · 11-17-2006, 11:16 PM

Our yellow sky redline is on order from Saturn of Wichita West. We were number 8 on the list for the R/L but they called last week and said that when the price increases went into affect they had to split the two stores by where the orders were placed. Just like magic I moved from 8 to number 2 on the list !!!!

We are in Salina Snaponbob. Are you bringing your Sky ??? Are you going to be at the old municipal airport or at Schilling (current airport).

We'll go out and root for you !

Valistener · 11-18-2006, 03:59 PM

You went from 8 to 2? I asked a couple weeks ago at Wichita-East and they said they had a 2 year wait and weren't taking any more orders. I wonder if things have changed.

I was told the same thing by the same dealers

five4ku · 11-18-2006, 11:29 PM

I'm here in OP too. Picked my black base Sky two weeks ago. Love it! Have seen a couple of Solstices around here but no Sky's. What color is your's?

KS_Sky · 11-18-2006, 11:45 PM

I didn't ask them how many were currently on the list. I placed my order July 4th weekend. Never even took a test drive !!! At that time they had a bunch of base Sky orders and told me I was 14 on the list for the redline. The list got shorter over time I think.

sky_hawk_07 · 11-19-2006, 11:43 PM

Overland Park here too. I have had my Black base sky for about 2 months now

When ya get it... ya know you will HAVE to 'Drag Douglas'

ictdave · 03-20-2007, 08:27 AM

I put my deposit down last August at Saturn West. They finally called me a week ago and let me know that they were ready to put my order in. I went down to the store to make sure that everything was still the way I wanted it and Brian said that I might see my Redline by May.

Fingers crossed,

Dave

DanC922 · 06-07-2007, 05:12 PM

I live in Wichita and work at Saturn East.

kc sunburst · 08-03-2007, 07:14 PM

HI all. We live in KC and are looking to meet others in our area with a piece of the (Saturn)Sky.

We ordered ours after we saw in at the KC Auto show back in March. We were told it wouldn't be here untill March or April of 2008. It came in on July 10th and we picked it up on the 11th (7-11) at Tiffiny Springs Saturn on I-29 in KC. It was the 9th Sky Built for the 2008 model year. Good Job Folks at both the dealership and the Plant in Deleware.
