2008 Saturn Sky Roadster Review
ProsIt handles well and it's gorgeous. ConsI wouldn't avoid it for this reason, but obviously it doesn't accelerate as fast as a 6-cylinder. Also, it doesn't have a backseat or very much trunk space.
45
It May Not Be Practical For Everyone, But I Like Being In Love With My Car Again! — I absoluely love this car. I missed being able to throw my foot down without holding back! I mean, without getting tickets. Ah, the joys of a 4-cylinder. I also missed having a convertible, even though I hardly ever use that particular function. I like having the option. To answer the questions asked, acceleration is less than in a Mustang (my previous car), obviously, but braking and handling are amazing. It hasn't needed repairs, or even gas, since I started driving it, because I haven't had it very long. Cost of ownership is actually slightly less than a Mustang. As far as appearance, it is absolutely gorgeous, and in my new favorite car color which I think of as melancholic blue (sorry, but I don't have the acutal manual, which would probably tell me the real name of the color!). And yes, it's great fun to drive! Primary Use: Commuting to work

ProsExcellent performance, eye-catching looks ConsLimited storage, unrefined interior.

Top-down Summer Fun — Performance is exceptional - much quicker than comparable models from BMW and Mercedes. Mechanically very sound so far, with no issues whatsoever. Interior quality is slightly below what you might expect, although sound system is excellent. Lack of storage is an issue for overnight trips. A very fun car to drive overall. Drive one before you buy a more expensive model. | ||

ProsVERY positive shifter Consdidnt leave me dying for one

Good If You Like That Kind Of Thing... — Performed well, acceleration was fair until the turbo spooled. brakes very well and handles okay, i was expecting better. interior needs a serious design change in that the shifter sits so high up too long driving will make your arm go numb from lack of blood circulation. it looks good, though. the car shifts like a dream. it is so positive its insane. | ||

ProsLots of power, fun to drive, head turner. ConsNo cargo space

Fun To Drive — This car is so much fun to drive, but only with the top down. The turbo gives this 4 cylinder plenty of power. Turn heads constantly and always getting complemented at the gas station. People can't believe it is a Saturn. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) | ||

Fast..... — the car gives you attitude!!! sometimes you cant help but to accelerate when changing lanes. always hoping to be first in line at the red light. it is a very nice car. the tires are expensive so keep the traction control on...it will save you some bucks on tires. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) | ||

ProsGreat engineering and performance with 5-speed. ConsA little cramped for a guy 6'5"

Best Orphan Car Yet. — It's just too bad when GM gets on the right track with a true roadster that the life is so short-lived and it ends all too soon. This engine, suspension, and brake package made it a really thrilling car to drive and it looks great, too. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) | ||

ProsBest looking car GM has ever built, some people complain about squeaks and rattles and this would upset me, but one minor noise in the steering column that goes away when the car warms up. Fast and handles well and will handle much better when you get rid of those Goodyears. Gas mileage, 22-23 city, 33-34 highway when doing the speed limit. Still get 28-30 between 70-85 highway. My friends own vehicles over $100,000.00 and I get more interest and praise for my car, it drives them nuts. ConsGetting in and out and a lack of storage, that's it.

Awesome — I am glad they did not make a lot of these cars because my car gets rarer and rarer every day. I have owned 25 cars and none have made me any happier than this one, it's not even close. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) | ||

ProsPerformance, a sure head turner on the boulevard. ConsNot a daily driver - you arent going to carry any groceries in this!

Uwould Buy This Again Any Day Of The Week. — One of the best cars we have ever owned - an absolute head turner. Strong performance - acceleration is exhilarating. No build quality issues - although we only put 11K miles on this car. Appearance - One of the best looking cars ever made. This was a win for GM. Then they stopped making them. *Sigh* Cost of ownership: Takes premium fuel, but the gas mileage was quite good for a sports car - high 20's Fun Factor - just a blast to drive, cruise and be seen in. 10 out of 10. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) | ||
