Saturn Vue Redline

I'm thinking of getting a Vue Redline. Does anyone have one? What's been your experience?

from what my dealer told me about the Vue Red Line they really arent worth the money......you pay an extra $3000 for basically a body kit and wheels.....he said they dont keep them in stock because they cant sell them because people look at the red line then look at a regular vue and see nothing different so they choose to buy the regular vue for cheaper.....I would use the extra $3000 and buy a top of the line Vue with the AWD and V6

No offence but, your dealer must be weak. (their negativity shows in their comment to you) We sell alot of them. Which dealer is it? I know a few people down there. I can give them some tips on how to sell them.

Oh yea, the Red Line Package on the Vue is only $1,995.00

And I think it makes it look A LOT better than the normal VUE.

I've got an 04 Vue Redline. I test drove the regular Vue and the Vue RL. The Vue RL with AWD and the 250hp v6 accelerates pretty frickin quick and it's a whole lot better than the standard Vue. It handles awesome with the 18's on there and to me there really isn't any comparison to the standard vue. Also you cannot get the 250hp v6 if you dont get the Vue RL. I'd be willing to bet that it can hang with the Ion RL. The only mods I have done with my Vue RL is the K&N drop in. seems to help with gas mileage and maybe a little better performance. My dealer in Cerritos was selling them pretty quickly as I bought the one on the showroom floor. I would not even think of buying the regular Vue.

Hang with the Ion Redline? That's funny. Maybe. But that's assuming your rear axle doesn't collapse when you try to turn the corner.

Maybe your assuming that I haven't gotten mine fixed yet. Also I was talking more or less in a straight line.

You know what happens when we assume, of course. I like the VUE redline. I don't really like SUVs, but I think the VUE RL looks nice. But I don't think the extra power will pull your extra weight past us. Just my guess, or, assumption. . .
