2006 – 2007 Saturn Sky – My Review and Picture

2006 – 2007 Saturn Sky

Ok, I am not real “Big” on Saturn…not that there is anything wrong with Saturn cars, actually they are pretty decent vehicle…just not my cup of iced tea. But, I was at the Houston 2006 Car Show and I saw the new Saturn Sky…and I was pretty impressed with it. It is hard to impress me I should add, I see lots of vehicles everyday in my shop and to me, most of them are just “vehicles” not too much to get excited about.

Before you say anything about the picture I have here, the picture in the Saturn brochure looks better than the pictures I took at the show, the lighting was terrible…and my pictures are too dark, so I scanned this one. When they hit the dealerships I will take a test drive and get some more pictures for you.

What does the 2006 Saturn Sky have?

1. Available in early 2006
2. Front engine – rear wheel drive
3. 2.4 liter 16 valve inline 4 cylinder with Variable Valve Timing
