The Saturn Sky is a two-seater roadster built by GM's now-defunct subsidiary Saturn between 2006 and the company’s closure in 2009 (due to GM’s post-recession budget cuts). It was based on the GM Kappa platform (which it shared with the Pontiac Solstice). Some may also know this car from a different branch of the General Motors automotive tree: Opel. The 2007-10 Opel GT was, in fact, a badge-engineered Saturn Sky for the European market, though sales figures indicate that it was nowhere as successful as the Saturn. The Red Line sub-model of the Sky came with a more powerful turbocharged engine than the base version, a torque-sensing limited-slip differential, StabiliTrak stability control, and enhanced suspension.
This particular example has a glossy red exterior with a tan interior. The manual soft-top is also tan, matching the interior, and has a glass rear window and defroster. Being a Red Line, it has several visual upgrades over the base model. On the outside, it has dual polished stainless steel exhaust outlets and silver 18” 5-spoke alloy wheels. On the interior, it has a black leather-wrapped steering wheel with mounted audio controls, stainless steel pedals, chrome door sills (with “Saturn” stamped on them), and embroidered seats. The paintwork appears to be in good condition, except for a few scuffs on the underside of the front bumper.
The Saturn Sky Red Line was available with a 2L Ecotec turbocharged 4-cylinder (which was shared with the Pontiac Solstice and claimed to make 260hp) and a choice of either a 5-speed automatic or a 5-speed Aisin manual transmission. The current owner states that this car has a new 2.0L turbocharged Ecotec I4 engine with 500 miles from General Motors and that it has been upgraded with a 5-speed manual transmission swap. It also reportedly has a new clutch. It also has independent front and rear suspension and disc brakes on all four wheels.

In the ʼ00s, Ford decided to honor its timeless Thunderbird personal luxury car with a retro-modern eleventh generation. Produced for just three short years, this eleventh-generation T-Bird saw over 60,000 units made. Heavily inspired by the first generation from the 1950s, this new T-Bird sat on a modern platform, and used a V8 from Jaguar, of all places. Today, we’ve got a 2003 Ford Thunderbird for those who are intrigued by this pastiche of ʼ50s styling and ʼ00s mechanicals and creature comforts. The car has done only 8,312 miles, making it a real rare find, and a definitive future classic.
Here’s an interesting little curio that you won’t easily find in North America. A meticulously-restored 1993 Volkswagen Cabriolet. This 168,800-mile car is basically a drop-top first generation Volkswagen Golf. The Mark I or first generation Golf saw a long production run, with the Cabriolet running well into 1993. Plus, the Mark I Golf is considered to be one of the icons of the ʼ80s; a fine-driving hot hatchback that can put a smile on anyone’s face. That’s why whoever chooses to pick up this 1993 Volkswagen Cabriolet is definitely going to be very happy. Is that you, then? Call us if it is.
In 1955, the Ford Thunderbird entered the American luxury car market and shook it up. Aimed at bringing Americans a taste of the European Grand Touring experience, the Thunderbird was called the Personal Luxury Car. It was a powerful two-seater with a suitably spacious trunk and all the creature comforts of the day. Aimed at covering hundreds of miles with ease, the T-Bird quickly became a cult classic. Ford made ten generations until 1997, but they had a brief change of heart in 2002. Hence, a retro-modern eleventh generation was released, and made until 2005. Just 60,000 were sold, making this generation relatively rare in comparison with the early ones from the Fifties and Sixties. So, if you’ve wanted to try out one of these curios, check out this 4,475-mile 2002 Ford Thunderbird that’s for sale right now with us.
