Saturn Sky gets a turbo and the Silverado SS / XLR get super

[Koll]

Saturn SKY Redline:



6 months after the production of the Saturn SKY, GM will introduce a Saturn SKY Redline, which will be powered by a turbocharged 253HP 2.0L Ecotec engine


Full-Size Trucks:

With the rollout of the next generation full-size trucks, GM will be revamping its Vortec 6000 engine. The new 6.0L will produce 400HP and 400lb/ft of torque (strangely similar to the LS2, no?). The 6.0L will be in the next generation of Cadillac Escalade, EXT, ESV, GMC Yukon Denali, Denali XL, GMC Sierra Denali and Chevrolet Silverado SS Supercharged.

well the only competition it has is the srt-10 truck by dodge...is that even in production after this year? If they throw in a low compression 6.0 with a blower and put down 500/500 in a std. bed truck it would definitly move...probably mid 13's or better.

if it were like 22-26k it would we a worthy car otherwise you could pass and buy a left over evo or sti

[BigAls87Z28]

Sky and Evo/STi are TWO totaly different cars.
Thats like saying you would pick a Miata, but a Chevy Uplander can seat 7.

Sky is a roadster....Evo/STi are compact rally cars.

Sky should start around 24-25. Red Line could come start under 30k.
Solstice will start under 20k.
