Like the black line along the rocker panel, and stripes on the rear quarters. Those.
All yellow just screams... All yellow. And that's _never_ a good thing.
The _only_ cars that can pull off all yellow are the NSX and the F50. |

Well, yesterday I looked around for cars with my mom. Looked at H3, Chevy Equinox, and Pontiac Torrent. H3 is a dog. The I-5 struggles to get it to move. The Theta Twins handle great and prefer the looks of the Torrent over the 'Nox. Also, the Pontiac dealer had a Solstice there because the owner was nice enough to have the dealer keep it for a few days. My mom loves it. Dad is the road block. He wants a slush box and he hates the manual top thing. Although he is slowly coming around.

I'd sell Brandon for a Solstice, even though they're going to be all over the road. | |

I wonder if the Torrent is based on another frame? Like the Chevy Tracker or something? | |

Well the panel between the tailights should come black on all cars, but instead it comes as the paint color. I think it look's okay otherwise in solid yellow. | |

Actually there not. GM is only producing 10,000 Kappa vehicles a year( includes the upcoming Saturn Sky). All of the '06's are gone and half of the '07's are already gone.

Well the Torrent would be for me. My mom is looking to trade in her Sebring as well as they have a bad feeling about it. As stated above, all of the '06's are gone so we would have to order a '07 which would be in by March-May. I like the Theta twins is because there crossovers so there car based instead of the truck based, body on frame design. | |

Sky, not Skye. And yeah, that's pretty sharp for a Saturn.
I think I still prefer the Solstice re: asthetics. It's got a bit of a Beemer look to it, and it's smooth. I likes teh smooth. | |
