This is a bit old so many of may have already come across it, but this is a very funny review of the Saturn Sky Redline.

Pity that a bunch of folks will buy the thing before they realize what an actual POS it really is.

Keep an eye out in the resale mags and watch how the used prices take a nosedive; always a good indicator of its true value.

I liked a lot of the comments at the end. Lots of "the miata is better, no the sky is better.." Our Boxsters are better!

I think the rag tops on the SKY and SOLSTICE look terrible in the back. It looks like the way I wrap a gift to get it shut!

Saw my first redline edition on the freeway today, one of those happen to pass'em, he/she sees you and then catches up to either a. engage in some sort of high-speed hijinks or b. roadster camaraderie. Sadly I was exiting, so could do neither.

The first Boxster owner to get spanked by one of these in a straight line should be sure to post to this thread.

If poor resale was an indicator of true value then the boxster is in trouble...
