07 Saturn Ion 3 Quad Coupe 2.4L Sport Appearance Package

[RobsCavZ24]

Well I really don't want to do this, but with my payment, insurance, current debt and bills, I am looking to sell my car. I bought it 8/31/2007 so I've had it almost a year, oil has been changed every 3,000 miles with Mobil 1 Full Synthetic oil and I have used Premium 92-93 since I bought it. The car was brought up from IL because they didn't have any in MI, had 420 miles on it when I received it, and it just rolled over 10,000 miles.

2.4L Ecotec LE5 16 Valve Engine with VVT 175 hp and 164 lb.-ft of tq
EPA: 24 mpg City, 32 mpg Highway

The car is basically stock, no engine or suspension mods.

I have the stock 16" Alloy wheels which currently have brand new snow tires on them, and 17" Drag DR17 Wheels in Gold with 225/45/17 BF Goodrich g-Force KDW NT's with 5000 miles on them. Snow tires were $600, Rims/Tires were $1000

I have a Carbon Fiber Trunk that is not on the car, a Leather Ion Redline Steering Wheel that is not on the car, Ion Redline Leather Insert Door Panels that are not on the car, and brand new OEM Tweeter Pods from the Advanced Audio System not in the car. I planned on swapping in the front Recaros and rear seats from a Redline, so I got the Steering Wheel and Door Panels so they'd match.

Edmunds shows a Retail Value of $17,431 and Private Value of $16,275 without taking into consideration the Sport Appearance Package and OnStar/Mirror and others which are over $750.

I'm willing to sell with or without extras.

Price depending on what you want if anyone is even interested.

With Stock Wheels the day I got it:

why did you use premium if the car requires regular?

Because of the 2.4L compression ration of 10:1 iirc they recommend premium, but not required.

i still dont think premium should be required for that car. i bet you could have ran regular and been just fine

my sister has a 2.4 ion and her car seems to run better with premium. The dealer told her to use premium in it also.

Like I posted it's RECOMMENDED not required, the car will run fine on regular, but will see increased performance and gas mileage with premium.

The auto is a lot nicer to have in the city, and also more consistent in the 1/4 mile. The stock trans will hold up better to the GT35R I was going to put on it as well...

I am willing to deal, I just want to pay half what I am now so if you or you know someone interested I'm willing to work with you...

I am thinking I would like to find this car hidden in a barn somewhere in 10 years, and install a redline driveline in it and have a cherry redline (non numbers matching ) to run at waterford Hills lol
