07 Saturn Sky Supercharged. on 2040-cars
Elizabeth City, North Carolina, United States
If you have visited the Saturn Sky Roadster forum you know me. Liveaboard74 Been on there the whole 5 years I've owned the car.
Bought the car out of Calif cause I really liked the look and had fun turning it up a notch. Wanted something that was fun to run out to dinner with and looked sharp, got good fuel millage and it does get 30+ mpg and easy to get around in traffic. Dropped it off at DDM in Spartingburg SC and they installed the supercharger, stereo and heavier clutch for me. Car had 24000 miles on it when I bought it 5 years ago and only has 35000 on it now. Car was fixed when I bought it and GF liked it so let her have it and bought a Corvette. Did some fixing up on that then we went our different ways, so I got the Sky back. Keep the vette for three years, just traded it for a 08 STS Caddy then daughter called right that change and said she was losing her G6 so I paid the note off on that and we got her something cheaper that I paid for that had more room. . Daddy is tapped out and she has 2 kids so the sky was way off base for her. Needed room anyway. So I've ended up with three cars and a 35000 pickup truck and want a boat. !!! LOL Between the vette and the caddy I got back into pro drag racing so the "SHOW Street Cars" just won't that important any more. The About ME on here has a couple of photos on it of the dragster and stuck a photo of the two new additions in there. (Cars) . Sky is perfect. Needs nothing. , AC will freeze you out, tires are all about new, and the Foose Rims shine like new and they are standard size. I don't ever change the size of the tire the car is suppose to have. Month after I bought the car took it to DDM in Greenville SC and had the supercharger , clutch and stereo installed. Pioneer stereo twin amps, twin subs, solo exhaust and tips, high flow cat, but the car DOES NOT sound like a ricer. I had a silencer installed after I got it home and didn't like the little to loud for me noise and it does have a wind screen. Two actually . One is still new, the one on it has Fountain wrote on it for Fountain Boats. Little River Motorsports on the back window but both are stick on so easy to remove. . Aftermarket clutch , gauge pod on window side with boost and fuel. Rubber SKY floor mats, leather sun visor covers, knitted center console, and a dash cover so I fixed it up nice but didn't want it busy looking. Payment. If you buy it now or I accept the offer put 300 on pay pal within 12 hours and the rest is BANK CHECK ONLY. I will contact you right after auction ends with a phone number. PLEASE READ > No personal checks, no money orders, money grams and cash works any day of the week and bank check can ONLY be for the remainder of the pay off.!!! Shipping. Three ways to do it. 1. You can fly in and GF or I will pick you up out of Norfolk VA Airport and get you to the car or have the car there for you. .. No charge. 2. I'll drive it to you if your less than 1000 miles. Pay the fuel, my eats, and a plane ticket home. You own me nothing. I'm a coast to coast car hauler so 1000 miles a day is nothing to me. I'd enjoy the ride. Might even bring the GF I'll pay her way home and expenses. . :) 3. Ship it by car hauler. I can help you set that up with someone also. If your over seas its all on you. I work out of the Brunswick GA port hauling cars from there or the Norfolk port I have a pass for both of those but anywhere else its up to you to do all the planning. SPAMMERS> Don't waist YOUR TIME wanting to send me a check for more than the amount of the car and me send money to someone to transport the car at a totally stupid rate. I am a transporter and actually had something try and pull this on me. Those guys don't give up. Not interested in any types of trade. Wanting to sell the sky to buy a pontoon boat so if it rolls on tires i'm not interested. LOL Thanks for taking the time to read it all. Just wanted to let everyone know why its being sold and over 800+ feedback i'm not going to sell you something that would hurt my rating or come back on me. Thanks and be safe. |

303 Deaths Tied To Airbag Non-Deployment In 2 General Motors' Cars
Fri, Mar 14 2014At least 303 motorists died in car accidents after their airbags didn't deploy in now-recalled General Motors vehicles, according to a study released late last night. The Center for Auto Safety, a non-profit automotive watchdog, reviewed data from the Fatality Analysis Reporting System, and counted deaths involving the Chevrolet Cobalt and Saturn Ion, two vehicles at the heart of several ongoing investigations, to reach its conclusion. If the airbag non-deployments were the result of a faulty ignition switch that inadvertently turns them off, the death toll would be the largest in automotive history attributed to a single defect, surpassing the 250 deaths investigators linked to defective Firestone Tires more than a decade ago. The rising death toll would further amplify questions about why GM and federal safety regulators at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration didn't act sooner to correct the problem. Safety advocates have said both GM and NHTSA failed to act in a timely fashion to alert motorists of the dangers posed by the dangerous defect, of which documents GM had knowledge of as early as 2001 and NHTSA knew about in 2007. "The question today for NHTSA is how so many ... death reports without an airbag deployment and so many FARS deaths without an airbag deployment failed to trigger an investigation," wrote Clarence Ditlow, the executive director of the Center for Auto Safety. "... For the people who died or were seriously injured in crashes, the answer comes too late." GM has acknowledged 13 deaths related to the problem, and says the number cited by the Center for Auto Safety study is "speculation." The review of FARS data, conducted by Friedman Research at the request of the Center for Auto Safety, looked at fatal cases in which airbags did not deploy but did not analyze the causes of the crashes. FARS information is raw data submitted to a national database by state and local authorities when fatal accidents occur. Last month, GM recalled 1.37 million cars in the U.S. because a faulty ignition switch had been inadvertently moving from the "run" position to the "accessory" position, turning off engines and systems that provide power to airbags. "Shame is not a strong enough word," said Lou Lombardo, the founder of Care for Crash Victims, another safety-minded nonprofit that advocates for accident victims. The results of the CAS study were first reported by the New York Times.
Report: GM temporarily restarts Saturn Outlook, Hummer H3 production
Tue, 16 Mar 2010Saturn Outlook - Click above for high-res image gallery
Even though both the Saturn and Hummer brands are being phased out, General Motors has reportedly revived production of both the Outlook crossover and H3 SUV to meet consumer demands.
Last month, GM assembled 1,037 Outlooks at its Lansing, Michigan facility, which is where the crossover's Lamda platform stablemates (Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse and GMC Acadia) are built. A spokesperson for GM states that production was reinstated to utilize the rest of the Saturn-specific material at the facility, and that the automaker will continue to assemble the Outlook for a few more weeks.
STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM
Fri, 16 Oct 2009Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.
