Florida man lets Saturn Sky convertible go for just $6.3k in a shockingly cheap sale

A Saturn Sky Red Line just sold in Florida for the kind of money you’d expect to pay for a rusty commuter. 

The final price? Just $6,300.

That’s barely a third of what these cars usually trade for.

And the buyer didn’t just get a cheap convertible, they got a turbocharged manual roadster with clean history.

The details behind the $6.3k Saturn Sky

The hammer fell on September 19 at $6,300.

That’s a shockingly low number considering most Saturn Skys in decent shape fetch around $15,000. 

In fact, the cheapest comparable sale in the last five years was only a hair lower at $5,500.

So what dragged the price down? 

The 2007 Red Line wasn’t pristine. 

The bumper was misaligned, one headlight had gone cloudy, the wheels were chewed up, and the seats showed deep creases. 

Scratches and scuffs dotted the exterior and interior alike.

But under the blemishes, it still packed plenty of appeal. 

The Red Line came with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder making 260hp and 260 lb-ft of torque, paired to a five-speed manual and rear-wheel drive. 

This one remained unmodified, carried a clean Carfax, and had a solid maintenance record including a new timing chain, fresh tires, and fluid services.

Mileage landed at 137,700, with the seller adding about 26,700 of those in the past four years. 

Finished in Midnight Blue with a tan soft top over black-and-tan leather, it might not have been concours-ready, but it was far from junk. 

For the winning bidder, it was essentially two cars’ worth of fun for half the usual price.

Why he sold it so cheap

The seller wasn’t downsizing for financial reasons. 

He’d actually added a 2016 Porsche Cayenne GTS to his garage earlier this year.

He let the Sky go because he already had a Pontiac Solstice and liked it more.

So up it went on Cars & Bids with no reserve, even though he said it was worth more to him.

No safety net meant the crowd decided, and they decided $6,300.

For a car often dubbed a ‘mini Corvette,’ that’s borderline insulting.

Someone just bagged a turbocharged, manual Saturn Sky for six grand flat. 

In car terms, that’s a legal robbery with paperwork.
