Aura has a cloud car roof line. The flared wheel arches.  Are these confirmed as is for production? (Just read it. Just a concept) Looking good Saturn.

At 2800 lbs, it should be in the same league as the Miata and I wouldn't be surprised to see a Sky Redline or Red Skyline or something... 
The miata is not that heavy yet. Even the Mazdaspeed MX-5 is only 2540 pounds (and that is the most a miata have ever weighed) and from what I have been reading they are trying to keep the NC under that weight
I saw the pontiac version of that car at the D.C. Auto show and I will be keeping my eye on it for when it comes out.

Sorry, what I meant was with 170HP and it's 2800 lb curb weight, it should have comparable performance to the Miata. In the twisties, I suppose we shall see, but it would have to be pretty good to keep up with the Miata.

Dear Lord, please don't let Saturn screw this up.

Looks like an RX-8 to me; and thats a good thing IMHO.

Looks like Saturn got ahold of the upcomming Pontiac Solstice and G6 Chassis.
I like the interior materials on the Aura
