Looks like the Curve will start not long after:

GM announced that it will begin producing a Saturn sports car at the plant in early 2006, using the same Kappa platform as the Solstice

Thanks, great local news from DE. Mid-2005 production start...hope they stay on schedule.

Build 'em with pride! :blueangel

It's nice to know they are narrowing in on a definite production start date. Makes it easier to plan that way.

i think im gonna get the NA and csc or turbo it later. i think the stock SC will be too much of a hindrance to power.

edit: that is, if THIS is gonna be the unit they use.

Nope, will not be the Curve. The Curve is not buildable. It may, however, look something like a Curve. Or not.

i highly doubt that it won't void GM warranty tho

they can only not warranty aftermarket parts you put on, stock parts you alter or parts that they can prove failed as a result of your modifications.

in other words, if you add an aftermarket power-adder they cant refuse to fix a bad power-steering pump, door pull, leaky roof, etc.

but, that leaves big-ticket items like the tranny, internal engine componenets and rear end. so there is risk. :smile

oh yeah, and a lot of dealers are begining to refuse to warranty bad MAF sensors due to KN-type oil/gauze filters being over oiled. so be careful!
