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 calling in 56k Saturn Aura sedans over shift cables
Thu, 08 May 2014General Motors may have made a few mistakes when it came to the whole ignition-switch debacle, and it will likely be dealing with the consequences for some time to come. But you have to hand it to Mary Barra and her team, because they're determined to clean house and avoid the same mistakes. That's why the biggest of the Big Three automakers in Detroit has been issuing recalls left, right and Renaissance Center. Aside from those vehicles fitted with the faulty ignition switches, GM has recalled over 50,000 Cadillac SRXs, another 50 heavy-duty pickups and some 51,000 full-size crossovers. There are bound to be more to come, and now it's issued another 50k-unit recall over faulty shift cables in the transmission.
The recall affects 2007 and 2008 Saturn Auras fitted with the four-speed automatic transmission manufactured between April 24, 2006, and October 31, 2007. The recall doesn't affect models equipped with the six-speed automatic, or for that matter any of the Aura's Epsilon platform-mates like the Chevy Malibu, Pontiac G6, Opel Signum and Vectra, Saab 9-3 or - carrying over from Fiat's aborted partnership with GM - the Fiat Croma, although many of those models used the same 4T40 transmission employed in the Aura.
In the affected vehicles, the shift cable might fracture while in motion, preventing the transmission from shifting into Park or the ignition from switching off, which the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration figures could lead to the car rolling away. Hence the recall of 56,214 units in the United States, owners of which can expect to hear from their dealership in due course to have the necessary components replaced.
Report: Saturn owners offered $2,000 to stick with GM products
Mon, 15 Feb 2010After 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.

Junkyard Gem: 2007 Saturn Sky
Sat, Jun 26 2021The Pontiac Division didn't have long to live when the Solstice first appeared in 2005 as a 2006 model, and Saturn's head was inching toward the chopping block at about the same rate. Still, optimism reigned — at least, it did until the global economy fell apart — and so Saturn Dealers got a rebadged version of the Solstice to sell: the Sky. Available for just the 2007 through 2010 model years, slightly more than 34,000 Skies rolled out of showrooms before the doors were nailed shut. Here's one of those rare cars, found in a Denver-area self-service yard a few weeks ago. I've found a handful of discarded Solstices in car graveyards during the past few years, mostly with crash damage. This Sky endured a medium-hard impact in the right front corner, which sent it to this place. The 177-horsepower, 2.4-liter Ecotec still resides under the battered hood. The Sky Redline version had a turbocharged engine rated at 260 horses; we can assume that such an engine would be yanked and purchased by the first junkyard shopper that realized what it was. The base transmission in the Sky was an Aisin five-speed manual, but this car has the optional five-speed automatic. The Sky had its own nose and some different badging, but otherwise didn't differ much from the Solstice. For the South Korean market, the Sky got Daewoo G2X badges and was advertised as the ideal vehicle for high-speed chases through Seoul traffic. The same car went to Europe as the Opel GT. Sadly, GM ran out of money to make right-hand-drive Skies, so we never got to witness Holden or Vauxhall versions. Here's Bob Lutz describing the new Sky. Lutz really hated car names molded into plastic bumper covers, so he takes great care here to describe the genuine glued-on emblems. Related Video:
