lol the vid is not a saturn its a solstice " pontiac" the pic below the video and below the first link is a saturn.....
 
:eek:GEEEEZUSS.... That is just crazy CRAZY power in a small package. I can see some casualties occuring in the future if these machines were to fall into the wrong "irresponsible" hands.
 
Modern day Cobra in the making.

It smoked the tires in the first three gears, and still did a 10.99 in the 1/4.
Pontiac might finally hit a homerun on this one, if they put in full production.

No way the general is going to show up the vette.....

The Vette has it own following.
This would be for people who dare to be different, or put their life on the line everytime they get in that ballistic missle.

I really doubt it would every make any type of production, but it would be cool to get your hands on one. Talk about a big time future collector item.

I mean that GM is not going to produce a car that out performs the vette....history has shown that anytime a vette engine gets into another GM model it is detuned...think GTO...;)

Too bad for the GTO. besides looking like a Gran AM, it was detuned. It had failure written all over it. Poor old Pontiac is going to end up like Oldsmoble if they don't get something that sells.

I loved my 92 Bonnieville SSEI. their 3.8 V6 is a great engine. Fast, dependable, got decent MPG, and require very little maintainance.

Did not need to de-tune it in that pig as it does not have the capability with equal power of showing up the Vette due to the weight difference and suspension problems. Think QC VS. RC

Yes, weight is also used...just saying GM aint gonna build a car that will beat the vette....based on past models..

Yeah because if GM built a vehicle that beat the Vette, then Vette sales will certainly plummit. For so many past years just off the showroom floor the Camaro was always short of taking out a Vette of the same year.

The thread actually shows BOTH....hence the title Pontiac Solstice. I just threw in the Saturn Sky pics for a little comparison......:bebored:
