You're right, they remind me of the Saturn Sky tail lights

Pictures don't do this car justice! I saw one in person and it is breath taking. I still don't like the rear end...it sort of looks like an Acura CL but nicer. Other than that, it's a piece of art. Just before I sold my R230 SL, I went to the dealer to get it serviced and there was an old man putting or wanting to put a deposit on the SLS He drove away in a Black SLR!!!! Shortly after he left, the service guy told me he put an order for the SL65 Black and changed his mind after seeing the SLS.
