2008 Saturn Sky Red Line Convertible, Garage Kept With 20,700 Miles, Outstanding on 2040-cars

US $16,600.00
Year:2008 Mileage:20700
Location:

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 investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

General Motors has announced a large investment in its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility. The former home of Saturn production will be getting a $167 million addition to a previously announced $183 million, to cover a pair of new midsize vehicles. The investment is expected to create 1,800 jobs at the factory.
That $350 million is being divvied up for a pair of programs at Spring Hill. The first will take the bulk of the money ($223 million) and create 1,000 of the 1,800 jobs, while the other will take the remaining $127 million and generate the leftover 800 positions. But GM says the investment will cover "midsize vehicle programs." So what could they be?
The leading candidate in our minds is a new crossover for Buick, called the Anthem, that will slot between the Encore and Enclave, but will be slightly smaller than the Equinox and Terrain. As we've explained, the new model will likely be the first product to sport GM's new D2UX platform, which will eventually replace both the Delta and Theta platforms. Spring Hill is already building the Equinox, so there could be some credence to this theory.

Report: Saturn owners offered $2,000 to stick with GM products

Mon, 15 Feb 2010

After its decision to euthanize Oldsmobile, General Motors knows exactly what happens when it mothballs one of its brands: GM loses market share to the competition. The General is trying to stop history from repeating itself with Saturn customers by offering $2,000 on the hood of every car and crossover donning the ringed planet badge. Automotive News says the offer actually started on February 2 and runs until the end of March. To be eligible for the $2,000 bounty Saturn owners must have leased or purchased their Saturn at least six months ago. Interestingly, those owners don't even have to turn in their Saturn to be eligible for the cash.
AN reports that research company R.L. Polk says even before Saturn went on the endangered species list, it lagged other GM nameplates in the all-important aspect of customer retention. The mass exodus from Saturn loyalty predictably intensified at the end of 2008 as customers became anxious over the future of the brand. For its part, GM insists that all Saturn warranties will be upheld and customers looking for service can still go to a GMC, Chevy, Buick or Cadillac dealership.

GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect

Tue, 17 Aug 2010

2010 Buick Enclave - Click above for high-res image gallery
The summer of 2010's recall hit parade continues unabated today, with General Motors having just announced that it is asking 243,403 owners of its 2009-2010 Lambda crossovers to bring their three-row haulers in for inspection. The culprit? Second-row seat belts in select Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Saturn Outlook CUVs have "failed to perform properly in a crash."
According to GM, a second-row seat-side trim piece is to blame, as it can impede the upward rotation of the buckle after the seat is folded flat. As a result, if the buckle makes contact with the seat frame, cosmetic damage can occur, potentially requiring additional force to operate the buckle properly. So far, no great shakes, but in the process of applying that additional force, the occupant may push the buckle cover down to the strap, potentially revealing and depressing the red release button. As a result of this, the belt may not latch, or in certain cases, it may actually appear to be latched when, in fact, it isn't.
