im pretty sure they're keeping it hush hush like the regular ions (as far as i know)

either way i don't think the '05s are going to be out in time for you to do an even trade for one, they probobly want to push out the '04s

I have also heard rumors of a LSD for the 05's, but I also have heard they may not make the Redline after 05 due to poor sales thus far.

I am hoping the first is true not the second!!

personally i hope they stop making them making mine rare...

if they do offer a LSD, they better make it an option for us '04 owners...

I have not heard anything about them cancelling the RL. Besides, it doesn't make sense to me to quit making a car after two years (especially since there are no major flaws or things that can't easily be fixed). Besides, Saturn has spent too much time and money on making this car perform. It would be a really bad business decision. Poor sales aside, the RL is a really(!) good car, and like I've heard you guys saying, Saturn needs an aggressive sales campaign.

Oh, I can tell you now that there will not be any changes to the interior or exterior of the car. And possibly a PCM upgrade (that was just a whisper, not for sure!).

I think that if they do decide to upgrade the PCM, they'll probably just reprogram it like they have done to other cars in the past. Ex. the VUE had a few problems that were solved with a simple reprogram that took about 10-15 mins. Just my prediction.
