The Sky RL 08' will have a fixed intercooler, better rear-differential cap, and not suffer from running rich... plus a moonroof.

No more! that is why there are no T.V. adds for this car. I hope yall are right. I love my sky.I waited 10 years for this car, and it came 4 months early. Does anyone have a pic of the sky with top on and wind restrictor on?

Vin #127 was a Company Car , I think it was is ALPHARETTA GEORGIA

If only the Skys came with a removable or reclining hard top. I'd trade in my STi today :T

thank you I waited to order my "2007" untill Sepetember of 2006 as you all know all new cars for the up comming year come out at the car shows in sept. It only took them 4 weeks to delever to me, my 2007, red/black leather int silver pearl with disc breaks all around,chrome wheels,liminited slip differenchal,with all the "race car features" I could get. They did come out in very late spring BUT they were 2006 they made only so many then aug of this year they brought out the 2007, do you who own 2006 skys have seats that tilt foward or can be raised or lowered? I do and they were not an option.also the 2007 have 7 more horsepower than the 2006, does not make rats butt,but I promise you will not see any 2008 untill the early fall of 2007, if any at all! I really hope the bring them back at least in 2010. As far as T.V. you might see a picture or a fast shot of the sky, but there is not a "SKY" ad unless you go to a dealership or the car show. by the way my sky is #127 of the 2007's I really dont want to be ugly about this. Please take this as just another saturn team player and 14 time saturn owner.and part time sales of saturn

There were no 2006 production model Sky's made. There was 2007 pre-production, maybe thats what you mean ? Some of the pre-production have less HP. Yes, I have seen a few sky adds on television. You will see the 2008 Sky and Solstice being made in the last week of June of 2007 and they should start hitting the Dealers In the beginning to middle of July 2007. I don't know where your getting your info but it's completely wrong. Alot of us Sky and Solstice people have been around around for a long time and have sources inside the company. So before you tell us that we don't know what we are talking about, get your facts correct.

You really have no idea what you are talking about !!! Take this from a kappa team player !

MDREDLINE · 10-21-2006, 10:29 AM

skyzthelimit, i'm sorry to inform you that most of your information is dead wrong..and if you are selling saturns please update your info and don't pass on rumors..i am an employee at the sky/solstice plant in Delaware and we definitely plan on making as many of these cars as possible for as long as the market demands them....the only reason it is limited right now is simply that we can't keep up......every order is a sold order right now.....we are working 3 shifts around the clock and some saturdays....we also have 2 export versions(Opel Gt and Daewoo) that we now have to fit into the schedule...welcome to the forum.......there are plenty of very knowledgable members on here that can find out the facts if you need assistance.....don't believe everything that you hear.....also, in the auto industry most plants have "change over" in the first two weeks of July to switch over to the new models so the 08's will be rolling out then....

Jury's still out. In this case, however, silence is not necessarily acceptance.

Sir Charles · 10-21-2006, 02:37 PM

I think that it would be cool if someone or even Saturn made a removable hardtop for the Sky. I have seen a few photoshop pictures with hard tops on them and I think that they look good with one.

CASH, TEXAS. Cash is on State Highway 34 five miles south of Greenville in south central Hunt County. It was one of several communities established in the mid-1890s by the president of the Texas Midland Railroad, Edward H. R. Green and was originally named Sylvia, in honor of Green's sister. Sylvia quickly became a church and school community for area farmers. Residents, however, wanted to rename the settlement Money, for John A. Money, who owned a store there. When this name was submitted to postal authorities, though, it was rejected and the name Cash substituted. A post office branch opened in 1895 with John A. Money as postmaster. Since its founding Cash has served as a community center for farmers in south central Hunt County, but the town never reported more than 150 residents until 1949, when it claimed 250 residents. Cash's population decreased to fifty-six by 1968 and remained at that figure through 2000.

I never got any answer from you all on one single question. You all want to voice your ideas but I'm not hearing any answers. why if you say my car is a 2006, why does the title read 2007 sky? why do I have free 100 k mile warrenty and the door ding/windshield/tire and rim replacement warrenty? Why do my seats move up and down,back and forth, and room behind them when they lay forward?

skyzthelimit · 10-28-2006, 07:10 AM

You got about 1/4 of my town info correct. As far as Mr. Money, the family is still in hunt co, but never in Cash. They are north of Greenville, Hence the Money Cementary... Cash is where the first scratch off game was , named after and all. There is no nor has there ever been a post office, nor any store. Nice place to take the top off and cruise the lake,and watch the changing leaves. Perfect FM roads. yall should come on a weekend for a ride. there are lots of places to see, and beautiful untouched land.

THERE WERE NO 2006 MODEL Sky's. They are 2007 model Sky's that were built in 2006. Thats why you got the 5 year 100,000 warranty. And your car was built in Willmington. That is where they build the Sky !!!! Not Detroit. You don't know what your talking about. The End !!

MDREDLINE · 10-28-2006, 09:16 AM

gm does not offer a door ding, windshield replacement warranty.......this is some junk aftermarket warranty.

And my title says 2007 SKY as well and was built May 26 2006. Hmmm - Because there are NO 2006 SKYs! There are SKYs built in 2006, but all are 2007 Model... Oh and I have the warrenty as well as does everyone who bought the car since they are all 2007 SKYs

skyzthelimit · 11-02-2006, 12:40 AM

I'm truly sorry to hear the words GM and JUNK in the same sentrnce, but it seems that GM knows a good deal when it sees one. Yes My 2007 sky built in sept 2006 and delivered Sept.29.And yes I have A P.D.R.[ thats,dent removal] for and door dings for the life of my car. already used it. also covers my Chrome wheels and 18" fat boys,also any chips or cracks to my windsheild,not to mention the 100k and leather warrenty for the intieor. It is nice to have it fixed for free.

Talz · 11-02-2006, 04:39 AM

It's not fee it's just prepaid.

Really if you are happy with it that's what counts. Extended warranties are generally high profit margin items, though knowing you won't have added expenses is nice as well!

I agree with MDRedline alot aftermarket warranty is a waste of money ( or as he called it Junk ). And if in fact you got a door ding warranty it isn't by GM. They don't have that for a warranty I'm almost positive.

Redline7000 · 11-02-2006, 09:40 AM

When does price protection kick in? I put a deposit on a Redline in June but my dealer has not received an allocation for one yet. Does it start with the deposit or when the order is acually accepted by GM

If your Dealership didn't put in a preliminary order your not price protected.
