    Dude buys a small, low to the ground, limited production convertible sportscar and then complains about things related to a small, low to the ground, limited production convertible. LOL

      Right? You want side skirts and a front lip? Go get a Miata or a Honda which have plenty of parts 😂 and you also want a coupé? Go get the Pontiac solstice coupé brother 😂

    The Saturn Sky is very underrated. It has it's quirks but also it has some charm to it.

      I agree and I would have bought one a year or so ago until I discovered that there is no, and I mean NO, storage space. Even a Corvette has more room! What were the Saturn engineers thinking?

    Your speed bump you hit too fast, judging by how far back the damage was, and dude your tires are freaking bald!

    I assume judging by the fact that you didn't explain anything regarding the longevity or necessary.Maintenance regarding this vehicle would be because your mother is going to be paying for all this and it really doesn't matter too

    Dude they did make a coupe. 125 to be exact they were assembled in Mexico. I have a convertible and now I am looking to buy one of the coupes I have located in Mexico. When you had custom wheels made a year ago, why didn't you put on new tires? Your front one's are dangerous.

      There is a company I forget the name that makes custom hard tops for the Saturn Sky and Pontiac Solstice. Just do a good search for Saturn Sky hard tops.

      125 coups were made in Mexico. I have located one and I am considering buying it. A lot of red tape involved or I already would have bought it.

    Come on bro, you do realize this is not a daily driver car but a sunny day weekend car. All your complaints would go away if you just had something that wasn't a two seater convertible with zero practicality but all fun. Just sell the car to someone who would appreciate it. Probably somebody older than 30 years old…

    I had a sky and I know they don't have a place for a spare tire but is there any way of fitting one in this car without taking up the passenger seat ?

    • @alexchavez1011
      @alexchavez1011  Рік тому

      Not really that I can think of unless it was mounted on the outside of the car like on a rack on the back

    I love my sky.
    Got the 3.5 inch catalytic converter from ddmworks.
    i want that brace bundle as well.
    i have to 2.4l NA, manual.
    I love this car so much.
    Don't worry i've also smashed my fenders on speed bumps, and honestly i'm about function over form, so i'll just call it self clearence and i'm dumb for driving too fast over speed bumps.
    PSA IF YOU SEE ONE OF THESE CARS
    WE HAVE TO GO LIKE LITTERALLY 2mph OVER SPEED BUMPS
    sorry not sorry

    • @alexchavez1011
      @alexchavez1011  Рік тому

      Yes I definitely want the brace kit too would love to get it in the future to stiffen up the car and yeah the fenders arent great but oh well

    OK how about my 10
    First did you do any research on this car. Boy you sure have complaints. Everyone knows how Saturn's are made so saying it's made the way it is well no kidding do you know you barely move over speed bumps roadrail track you are suppose to slow down a lot bc car fly over any car get damage from speed bumps and tracks slow down. And if doing laundry use the front seat are bringing someone along. Buy washer dryer then. Oh you have to move your fingers back for windows that's really a big deal seriously. The radio you driving 80 mph where do you live of course you can't hear music. How about new music system in you knew it was a convertible. They have saturn coop no convertible. I buying a car I checking reading do everything my conclusions. You giving 10 reasons why. Why didn't research this car. Did you even test drive it look it over talk to the seller. I surprised. I think you should get new car

      What you will find on yt videos are people that customized their Sky by swapping out their 4 cylinder and cramming in a LS2 or LS3.
