Sold out this year: Saturn Sky, Pontiac Solstice and Chevrolet Corvette
Although General Motors have posted its sixth straight quarterly loss on Wednesday, many of its low-volume sports cars, including the yet-to-be-launched 2007 Saturn Sky, are already sold out for this year.
This was confirmed by GM Vice-Chairman Bob Lutz in a speech in New York, where he said in reference to the Sky, "All available production for 2006 is accounted for."
The Sky shares its platform with GM's other popular roadster, the Pontiac Solstice. According to Lutz, the Solstice has the best turn rate of any vehicle in its segment and it is also sold out for the 2006 model year. Pontiac launched the Solstice last year and by the fall had about 13,000 orders for only 7,000 units. Lutz said the Chevrolet Corvette is sold out as well for the 2006 model year.
So it’s not all bad news for the troubled automaker after all.
Meanwhile, quality GM auto parts such as Chevy wheels, Pontiac parts and Saturn parts are still available at Auto Parts Corner.
