Re: GM says it has no hope of making a profit on its new Saturn Sky roadster
Lets clear a few things up here, the reason that Solstice has low production is that the hydroformed BODY panels are expensive, SKY has metal body panels, I believe. Also hydroformed frame rails shouldn't be any more expensive than a traditional unibody car, less extra peices, and saved space and all. I think chevy Will get some type of Kappa or a car closely related to Kappa, now keep in mind that the rear suspension is extremely Sigma-like and therefore Zeta-like.

I tell you what, I was at NAIAS last night and I can't tell you how beautiful the Sky looks in person, it had quite a crowd around it, who kept interrupting the model during her speech asking "how much?"
I don't think there will be any problems selling this thing. Heck if I came into some money in a few years, I'd pick one up and shoehorn an LS2 in that bad boy....I'm sure it will be done by someone!

This smells like the 1968 AMX and American Motors. Worked for a while with AMC, maybe it will boost Saturns image too. Although, lets see....what ever happend to AMC anyway?

My vote is for a coupe hatchback 2 seater ala Z3 coupe, I think it was called the 'M-coupe.' I don't see them very often but I think they are very cool. Also this should cost like $15K They would sell a LOT of a car like this.

gosh damn
how many chevys are they gonna make?
seems like all the other divisions make a small number of cars/suvs and then chevy has like a million models
not that that's a bad thing

I don't think it was.
