After much consideration and soul searching we have made the decision to sell our 2008 Saturn Redline Turbo.  This is truely our weekend, date night, top down just have some fun convertible.  The car has been kept in our climate controlled garage and never driven in any messy weather.  As such, it does not have any issues of a daily driven vehicle.  We did get caught in a rainstorm at our house in mountains a couple times in the past so it has been wet...but this is about it.  I normally keep the car covered in the garage.  As you can tell I am very picky and I also keep up all the maintenance without fail.  The car just had a full service and all fluids except anitfreeze done this past spring.  I am not going to say the car is perfect or is a "10" as it is 5 years old.  When you drive a new car off the lot is it not perfect anymore.  The paint is beautiful and may have some very slight road rash on it but if so is very minor.  I understand it is hard buying a car on the internet as I am a muscle car collector.   However, I will be happy to answer any of the questions I can directly and honestly.  As of today and the time of this ad I do not know of anything the car needs.  The tires only have 1440 miles on them.  I did change the factory Goodyears to Toyo's when I replaced them last year.  They tires are like new.  Also, I added the "Euro" verson of the windscreen deflector instead of using the plexiglass or mesh units offered here.  The glass unit for the Opel GT is much more expensive but it is very superior.  There is no need to removed it and replace it everytime the top goes up and down. 

The car drives straight with absolutely no shakes, shimmies or rattles.  All of the lights work as expected and the door seals, tops seals, trunk and hoods seals are excellent and in nearly perfect condition.  All mechanicals work excellent and as they should.  The AC is ice cold.  Wheels have no rubs or scratches.  Lights and lenses are clear and bright. As I said, I am very picky and they car has been kept as such.  I am willing to pick up at Phx Sky Harbor if you want to fly in and drive home or will help make sure it is loaded properly if you choose to ship.

Feel very confident in this purchase.  It never fails to get compliments when we take it out.  Honestly, it does get more comments than our 2014 Camaro SS convertible and half of my old muscle cars.  We really do not want to sell but were are getting ready for another one of my collector cars to come.  It has been in a 4 year resoration and I want it in our main garage. 

Please let me know if you want more pictures or have any questions.  I will answer them as quickly as possible. 

You will be making payment directly to my credit union and they will send you title from our trust directly. 

Good luck and God Bless

GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll

Tue, 25 Feb 2014



588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.

Guess when this car will plunge through the ice, win $1,500

Mon, Feb 18 2019

In Michigan's Upper Peninsula, a sad-sack Saturn raises money for charity while awaiting an icy fate. The 1998 Saturn is a bright orange beacon inviting folks to make a bet on the coming of spring. When the weather warms up enough and this Saturn sinks, someone is going to take home $1,500. It's the Iron Mountain–Kingsford Rotary Club's annual car-plunge contest, a fundraiser that takes bets on when this car will fall through the ice. The contest had been run in years past and was resurrected in 2015. In the old days, the hapless cars sank to the bottom of the lake, which is actually a flooded old iron mine. In today's more enlightened environmental era, this Saturn is attached to a cable affixed to an anchor on shore, allowing it to be yanked out of the water. It also has been drained of all fluids, degreased, and had its powertrain, battery, and radiator removed (which means it weighs about 1,800 pounds). The lake sits alongside a main highway, assuring maximum visibility for the car and the contest. But it's not only locals who are invited to take a chance; anyone 18 and over can bet via this online link. Ten dollars buys three chances. Whoever most closely guesses the date and time that the Saturn slips under the waves takes home $1,500. Betting closes March 15. The past four years have seen the car fall through on March 17, April 2, April 4, and April 26 — although, as they say, past performance is no guarantee of future returns. And remember: Bet with your head, not over it. Here's video of last year's fateful moment ...

General Motors Recall List

Wed, Oct 22 2014

It seems General Motors can't go more than a few weeks without issuing a major recall. Since the initial ignition lock recall on February 10, over 25 million vehicles have been recalled for defects. It seems General Motors can't go more than a few weeks without issuing a major recall. Since the initial ignition lock recall on February 10, over 25 million vehicles have been recalled for defects. We used the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recall list to compile a snapshot of all the GM vehicles recalled in the last two months. NHTSA also provides a search engine that allows owners to search for recalls on their vehicle. An automotive company must do everything in their power to notify its customers when a recall is issued on a vehicle. If you own any of the following vehicles and you have questions regarding your car, you can contact Chevrolet at 1-866-694-6546, GMC at 1-866-996-9463, Buick at 1-800-521-7300 and Cadillac at 1-866-982-2339. Or check out General Motor's recall site. Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or go to www.safercar.gov. Here's a brief summery of the other vehicles currently under recall: July 26 – 414,333 cars affected NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V447000 Models under recall: Certain model year 2011-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal and Chevrolet Camaro, as well as certain 2010-2012 Cadillac SRX, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain vehicles, equipped with power height adjustable driver and passenger seats. Problem: In the affected vehicles, the bolt that secures the driver's and passenger's power front seat height adjuster may fall out causing the seat to drop suddenly to the lowest vertical position. Consequence: If the driver's seat unexpectedly drops, the distraction and altered seat position may affect the drivers' control of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. Solution: Dealers will replace the height adjuster shoulder bolts, free of charge. July 14 – 16,939 cars affected NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V341000 Models under recall: Certain model year 2011 Cadillac CTS vehicles manufactured October 18, 2010, to June 2, 2011. Problem: In the affected vehicles, vibrations from the drive shaft may cause the vehicle's roll over sensor to command the roof rail air bags to deploy. Consequence: If the roof rail air bags deploy unexpectedly, there is an increased risk of crash and injury to the occupants.
