The vehicle is equipped with all of the standard features but that's where the similarity ends. The 5 Speed Automatic Transmission allows for smooth and comfortable driving for anyone but doesn't hinder the performance of this sportscar.

The 2.0 ltr Ecotech engine has also been given a "Level 2" Tune allowing for maximum performance and giving another measurable horsepower boost of at least 15%. Other performance enhancements include a High Volume Intercooloer from Hahn "with enough capacity to effectively support over 700 HP.

Due to the significantly improved airflow this unit provides, power and response are improved at all RPM and throttle positions...Customers report not only notable peak power increases, but also significantly improved throttle response and low-speed power; Also added for better handling and stability is a Rebar Rear Stabilizer from Kappasphere in CA, a customizing motorsport shop that has made products for the Sky model since its inception. ...with the vehicles low curb side body weight, you are in a class all your own when it comes to performance...Now for the cosmetic Changes...The Chrome Billet Grille additions to the front of the sky change the whole perspective of the vehicle adding just enough sparkle to let the car standout among the rest of the competition...plus adding the Griffin Logos to the front and back confuse most as to the origin of the vehicle while changing the stock identifiers on the rear help to assist with the illusion..another ADDED feature is the Custom Chrome Luggage Carrier made by Kappasphere allowing for additional capacity for your belongings for traveling or extra packages when just shopping.. it is rated up to 50 lbs carrying capacity and is simple to install or remove.

The car has been regularly maintained by a GM Dealership...AND as an added extra, there is a GM Bumper to Bumper Warranty till January 6, 2015 or 53,189 miles which ever comes first

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
GM ignition switch trial cleared to begin on January 11
Sat, Jan 2 2016US District Judge Jesse Furman didn't accept General Motor's attempt to dismiss a civil trial over the automaker's faulty ignition switches, and set a January 11 start date for the case to begin, according to Reuters. The judge found that plaintiff Robert Scheuer had the evidence to proceed with the case. Scheuer was injured in an accident in his 2003 Saturn Ion in 2014 when another vehicle forced him off the road, and he crashed into some trees. The airbag didn't deploy, and Scheuer alleged this was the result of the faulty ignition switch. According to Reuters, Scheuer's trial is one of six bellwether cases over GM's ignition switch problem in the coming year. Juries' decisions in these lawsuits should provide an example of how similar trials could end, and these results would help The General decide whether to settle other pending cases or to keep fighting them. The ignition switch fiasco has already cost GM billions. For example, the company's compensation program offered $594.5 million in 399 cases of people killed or injured by the defective parts. Anyone that accepted this money agreed not to sue GM for the problem later. The company also came to a $900 million criminal settlement with the US government and paid $575 million in civil resolutions in September.
Saturn Vue ignition issue was discussed three times before recall, new documents reveal
Fri, 05 Sep 2014Despite the tens of millions of recalled vehicles this year, it's somewhat rare that we get a glimpse into what goes into deciding when to conduct one of these safety campaigns. New documents published by General Motors and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration are giving us an interesting opportunity to see how the sausage is made and show the number of meetings it takes to declare a recall.
In early August, GM added about another 269,000 vehicles to its 2014 recall tally in the US when it announced a slew of new safety campaigns. Among them was a fix for the 2002-2004 Saturn Vue that covered 202,155 of them in the US. The problem was that the key could be removed from the ignition even when it wasn't in the "OFF" position, and that had caused two crashes and one injury, according to the automaker.
Where we start to see behind the veil is in the defect notice freshly released by NHTSA. It shows that GM began investigating more widely for ignition switches in April, shortly after the company expanded its ignition switch recall to a variety of Saturn products, among others, according to Automotive News. The automaker found 152 reports in the 2002-2004 Vue of vehicles rolling away or the key being removed out of a total population of 215,243 units worldwide.
