2008 Saturn SKY Review - Kelley Blue Book

[@nancygreen8186]

I owned two vettes and just bought a saturn sky.. they both are great cars and fast. I got the red line turbo sky. upgrade to 290 hp.

[@thomasharris5151]

@3:50 🤔The REDLINE horsepower is NOT 240… it’s 260..! You all should’ve known that even 15 years ago..! Given false information as a “credible” media company. Especially when you have access to all of this basic information….. don’t believe me, check the specs for yourself….

[@Donut153]

The Sky is better looking (gorgeous really) but the S2000 seems like the more track worthy of the two, the S2000 is nice looking too IMO, just more understated than the Sky

[@fastdude2002]

I have a Honda S2000. The Honda quality is at a much higher level in my opinion. My sister had a Saturn, not a sky but it felt really cheap and junky. The Honda is tight with a feeling of quality and the best 6 speed manual I have ever experienced, smooth, tight and short throws. The resale value of the S2000 is excellent. I have only found the time to put 8,000 miles on mine and I can sell it for more than I paid as its in the same condition basically as it was when I bought it new. Always garaged, never driven in the rain California car.

[@fastdude2002]

@@SCHMALLZZZ lol funny that you just commented on my 2 year old comment. I actually just sold my S2000 3 weeks ago for tens of thousands more than I paid new in 2002. It only has 8,000 miles on it. A car collector just bought it from me. Excellent sports car, she will be missed.

[@depr3467]

Cool car. Sad to see it have a short run.

[@Jazzybean0]

I like it, I would just have one to go to school/work and back. It reminds me of Chevys corvette but it's tiny compared to the actual one lol.

[@btlfn723]

I prefer my '08 Solstice GXP... But this is a nice ride.

[@fastdude2002]

I prefer my Honda S2000......

[@jackweasel12]

of all the roadsters I've driven this one looks the coolest but I feel it easily is out performed by the miata and s2k especially if you consider the aftermarket and the fact that imported cars kinda own the lightweight and superb handling bracket. ultimately it comes down to what you like.

[@robertquick6690]

So the Solstice SCCA wins year after year mean nothing?

[@rustbeltrobclassic2512]

While i am 100% with you, the Kappa is more reliable than a Mini and RWD, and for people like me, who simply just don't fit in the Miata, and don't want to spend 30K for a weekend car.. this is a great option.. though i will be honest, it's built with GM's fantastic quality where everything rattles, and the plastic quality is less quality than the rubbermaid garbage container at your curb.

[@takforce06]

Miata is a turtle compared to the sky redline

[@SCHMALLZZZ]

You must be high or a complete moron because the 07 Sky RL is faster than an 07 S2000, 07 Miata and and 07 Boxster. Get wrekt

[@dandil]

sky redline is awesome! also, the engine is 260, its from the cobalt ss.

[@bitemyshinnymetalass1569]

June 2017. Found 2 Saturn sky on my local Craigslist. one is selling for under 10k. the other for around 13k.

[@rogerhuber3133]

It's 2020 and I bought my Redline new in 2/2008. Only 42k miles and still a head turner. Only real complaint is not able to read the gauges with the top down even though they are set way in to the dash. Very nice wheels to drive and be seen in. Just made for the curvy roads in NW Arkansas.

[@colingrubbs2916]

Wouldn't the Nissan 350Z/370Z roadster also compete with the Saturn SKY?

[@hotgirlsarehot]

Saturn Sky looks better than the Solstice due to the tail lights and front grille/headlights.

saturn sky makes 260 hp/260 torque. and it does not look like a lotus

[@allans7281]

The turbo I think it’s 260 hp and there was a dealer installed mod to bump it to 290

[@TheColonelAngel]

im stuck between a mx5, z4, solstice and this car. i dont know which one to buy.

[@Dev.n]

mx5 , because it has a greater aftermarket backing..

[@Dev.n]

Job Done Right ha, all the car listed are slow. Maybe except the z4. And it would cost waaayy more to make the Pontiac solstice or Saturn sky a "fast" car then it would the mx5 miata.

[@jobdoneright5934]

Tixe $300 for a gm tune to make it go from 260 to 300hp. mx5 is nowhere near that

[@TheColonelAngel]

+Job Done Right I don't care for my car to be fast I live in Miami I just want something that's a convertible, small and reliable.

[@jobdoneright5934]

TheColonelAngel NO just responding because the guy said it wasn't fast. GXP/Sky are fine.

[@s2k90650]

@HondaSIIk, Corvettes are true sports car, you have a lot of balls to speak ill of the Corvette and this is coming from a s2000 owner. Although the s2000 is a best bang for your buck track worthy sports car, I think the Saturn Sky is a right direction for Saturn/GM. I haven't driven a Saturn Sky but I'll take the s2k over a sky just because I've own one for 4+ yrs and it's still a blast to drive.

[@fastdude2002]

Honda S2000 much better quality. I have one with only 8,000 miles on it!

[@dorky24]

@flatblackstrat There are multiple configurations for the engine, each at a different cost.

[@srkarr00]

Need to check your facts sammy2taylor. I own a sky redline. Has traction control and limited slip diff. 7 speaker "upgraded" audio (they have aftermarket is you what too.) My stock satelite radio works just fine. Convertible flaps work too. Trunk and wind noise is true. Plus the 290 hp and 340ft/lbs make for a quick ride. I guess your hoping the caps locks will make it all true.

[@richardsilva5134]

my 2007 has not only traction control but also electronic stability/handling,, also you said the 2.0 has 240 HP,, it actually has 260 HP.

How much is it worth right now

[@redhotcustoms]

Dad's supposed to get one soon, and once I make some money, i'm gonan trade my Ion in for one.

[@razoropsrs8316]

I truly believe that an S2000 and Miata MX-5 are better roadsters, BUT a Solstice GXP has similar handling and weight distribution with a simply massive increase in power. I'll take a 15% decrease in handling for a much bigger increase in power.

[@Ony777]

Maybe because more than half of Florida's inhabitants are retired elders. Haha

[@SimbaTheGreat]

i would kill for the red line sky in either silver or that deep red

[@lckhmup-xf5ft]

[@MoopMoore2697]

@39willieparker Is that really such a bad thing?

[@SkippyThorson]

Junk Corvette? I think it's hysterical that you're loving up on the Honda S2000, and you call the Corvette junk. It's only junk because you can't afford it, and the Honda is more within reach. Any Vette would take a proverbial dump all over any (remotely) comparable Honda. Get a clue. Really.

[@lordprotectorhaythamkenway6495]

Nice profile picture

[@TheKeithriff16]

My mom saw that car yesterday and thought it had a beautiful design. At first she didn't know what kind of car it was, then I said it's a Saturn Sky.

[@TheThomasites]

He also said its an mx5. Not sure he knows what's going on.

[@1965ace]

My sky 279 RWHP 331 FT LBS K&N Magnaflow Stage 2, Waste gate Mod & HP Dyno Tune. The torque maxes at 3000 rpm and is very flat til 5200. The power is appear-ant at low rpms. It's a car that will get the inexperienced driver in trouble very quick especially around corners. Tires are the weak point.

[@LoboMan7409]

The redline has a 260 horsepower motor.

[@AnonymoussourceL0L]

s2000 is the only car I know of which will rev to 9000, which is kinda cool, plus why is it that GM has a habit of making clones of a car? Chrysler town and county=dodge caravan, solstice=sky etc

[@lckhmup-xf5ft]

There the exact sane body style except the Soltice gas a bug eater grill!

[@SCHMALLZZZ]

​@lckhmup-xf5ft no, the solsotce looks like a 1950s pontiac bonneville concept, the sky.looks like a 7/8th scale c6

[@vunley]

Between a used Sky and an S2000, the S2000...of course!

[@LakeHowellDigitalVideo]

The Redline version would beat the S2000 like a red headed stepchild in every performance metric imaginable.

[@fastdude2002]

Not really, not in handling and not in quality, Honda has it beat. Check resale values. S2000s with low miles are going for what they cost new or more. Pontiac and Saturns go for pennies on the dollar, major depreciation. I should know, I have a S2000 with only 8,000 miles in California and I will eventually sell it for more than I paid new....

[@corvettels9]

I'd change that grill first, though.

[@jman781]

Pretty inconsistent review, first he says 260hp for the Redline then 240 which is it.

[@takforce06]

260 irl

[@ninjareactz]

pretty good looking car except for the chrome accents on the exterior

@metalman7878 I agree. I'd rather have an NSX or hell even a civic coupe.

[@intrepid_wandering]

I live in South Florida and it seems the only people I see driving this car is old retired people lol don't really know why.

[@clairekennedy8767]

Great car wrong owners, General Motors ruined their vehicles by making them all based on the same cars. If this car was from a well established brand it would have had much more success. I’m not being a brand snob it’s not the brand cache I’m speaking of but instead the mismanagement.

100% Agree. You have to rev the shit out the S2000 just to get the damn thing to move. It's horsepower rating is crazy -- like at 7500 RPM.
