2008 Saturn Sky

6491 2008 Saturn Sky Convertible

For consignment, a 2008 Saturn Sky convertible with a title verified 19,456 actual miles. Its had just two owners but gained the attention of many more people as our consignor tells us the questions come fast when people see it on the street. This was a beloved gift to the consignors self in celebration of retirement and as a result, was garage kept and well maintained. It will come with a car cover and windscreen.

Exterior
Our car is finished in Polar White which does a great job of blending with the chrome accents that include the grille trim, hood vents, 18-inch wheels, window frame, and door handles, while contrasting perfectly with the black canvas top, tires, and grille inserts. A reviewer described the front as a boxer with his chin out and thats a great visual, as the headlights are set back while the lower valance leads the car. The long nose, compact cab, and short, rounded tail is classic sportscar and the side fender vents and accompanying body contouring add aggression and style. Fairings behind the seats borrow from far more exotic rides and the single reverse light low on the rear valance is something else you might see on high end hyper cars. The canvas top is in great condition and has a glass window between extended buttresses that flank the fairings. Imperfections are limited to a touched up scratch and some minor scraping on the chin.

Interior
Simple black door panels have concave inserts that provide some elbow room in the cab and are accented with chrome door pull handles. Sporty, black cloth seats exhibit aggressive side bolstering and seat support amongst its stitched panels. Sporty is how we would describe the thick leather wrapped steering wheel as well mounted on a wide column that leads directly to the gauge pod in front, inset deep in cylindrical gauge housing and surrounded by molded and textured plastic on the dash. The center stack is the control center with climate controls, radio with CD, and digital display screen. From there, shiny gray paint covers the center console that houses the shifter surrounded by a plastic chrome frame. Low pile black carpet covers the floor, and the small storage trunk is finished in gray cloth covered panels. Everything inside is in very nice, almost new condition.

Drivetrain
Under the hood is a clean 2.4 liter 4 cylinder engine, fuel injected and rated at 177 horsepower. A 5L40E 5-speed automatic transmission backs it up and sends power to the rear axle with 3.91 gears with limited slip. Power disc brakes are supplied on this sportscar.

Undercarriage
No runs, no drips, no errors! The underside is clean as can be with typical surface rust and little else worth noting. The CV boots look great and the single exhaust retains its original muffler then exits flush with the rear valance. An unequal length double wishbone suspension exists at both ends, with short/long arms or SLA.

Drive-Ability
Autoblog was spot on. The car handles great and feels balanced and sure footed. Its got plenty of power which always feels a bit magnified when youre lower to the ground. As expected with such a well kept car, every function we could test operated as intended. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.

One of the most underrated cars to come out of GM in the past 20 years, we hear nothing but praise for Skys and when you get behind the wheel, we, like automotive journalists at the time, wonder why these werent more popular. The beauty is that people use these for pleasure vehicles and as a result, often turn up with low mileage and high levels of care. Thats what we have here in stunning white. Your summer chariot has arrived!
