If Mr P. does decide to have the next SKY based on that Renault coupe, they are going to have to rag-top it!!!!
(And grow some humps of course..... even if only to tick off the head of GM's Chevy division - you know, get him all twitchy about Corvette competition all over again - what a dufus......) |

takes a lot more than a torque curve / horsepower to make a vehicle a sports car, the C6 is my first V8 performance car as i've built and drove turbo 4 poppers for most of my life... but comparing a sky to a c6 is plain ridiculous.

It's a little less ridiculous than you think.
http://www.mallettcars.com/sky-conversion.htm http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5_0_Hnt0ZA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4AtZ8zQ5We4&NR=1 Really, the platforms are both pretty similar. It's too bad they didn't make a targa top style Sky, it'd really have been a poor man's Corvette. And it'd have taken care of the biggest issue of the Sky/Solstice (the crappy top/lack of space with the top down). |

I don't like how the top works on the Sky/Solstice. It'd have been better if it was automated, but that woulda been expensive/heavy I guess. It storing under the trunk does make for a nice clean look, but I don't like how you've got to get out of the car to deal with it.
I think a shooting brake Sky would have been sick. |

THey ~2002 opel speedster should have been the Sky Gen1.
No top- standard. Who the hell drives one of these in the rain, anyway? They're classics now, as are their pontiac clones. ![]()
