Pros:
Exterior aesthetics
Cons:
Interior ergonomics are all wrong, Roseville Saturn won't allow test drives
I went to look at the Saturn Sky with my parents last night (my mom is wanting a "cute" and confortable convertable, she doesn't care about power, any recommendations???).
The outside looks sweet, but when you sit down in the car the layout and ergonomics are all wrong. The door line is almost up to my neck (I'm 5' 11''), you have to reach more than normal for the A/C and radio controls, the window controls are more towards the rear so you have to use your right arm to use them or tweak your left arm to reach them, and I had to scoot the seat far enough back to make room for my legs, but then the steering wheel felt too far away. It's just all wrong.
Plus I hear they're soon to be coming out with a Redline version with turbo and over 200 HP.
Another thing, they won't let you test drive until they've done your financing. They literally sold the two that were on the showroom floor while we were looking at them.
Personally, I'm not a fan. I'd like to see how it rides though. kbye
