GM Kappa News (Solstice, Sky)

[YSSMAN]

...Back to the Kappa news...

Today, Saturn announced that the 2007 Sky Red Line will be available this fall at a starting manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $27,895 (including destination charges). Retailers are now taking orders for the turbocharged variant of the Sky roadster. The Sky Red Line features the 2.0L Ecotec Turbo engine, equipped with direct injection technology. It produces 260 horsepower and 260 lb.-ft. of torque, making it General Motors’ highest specific output engine ever at 2.1 horsepower per cubic inch of displacement. On Wednesday, GM announced the Pontiac Solstice GXP would start at $25,995

I don't think $27K seems too unreasonable for a Euro-tuned sport convertable... Given that the car will be nearly identical underneath as the Opel GT (suspension tuning might be different), I'd call it a steal!
