Indeed because a Sky is replaceable with a Cobalt.













I heard the Corvette was failing and expensive the first 2 years in. What if they quit that huh? huh?

They are both great cars that people want and instead of improving them, getting costs down they give up. I know money is tight but **** they are throwing enough money away on Saturn all together. For shame, at least we now know what future collectibles are out there.
