Isn't this the kind of stuff I could find on gminsidenews.com???

BTW...styling, not gonna hate on it, but price is far out ridiculous! I could get an Outlook XE AWD with the dual sunroofs for a couple grand more. The engine is the same as I would get in tons of GM vehicles and nothing too impressive. Tweak it a bit with maybe higher compression pistons like they did in the 304hp 08 CTS...maybe it would catch me a little bit more...

Arrow New Saturn Cars

Ok so GM is trying to get Saturn to take the place of Oldsmobile we all know what happen to them. So that doesn't bother me as much as scarping the composite body sides and replacing them with metal. I hope y' all don't mind your insurance rates going up. you will now have door, rock and shopping cart dings all over your car. They always scrap the concepts that are smart for the ones that cost the consumer more money. Anyway I'll keep my slow mo, plastic car and laugh when everyone has body work done on there's..

not lying about insurance rates. i'm a bit bummed that my insurance went up when i went from my 04 ion qc2 to my 07 aura xr...
i called Geico and asked why going from a small, sporty coupe to a mid-size sedan was costing me more money. she put me on hold and came back with "i'm showing parts & labor are more expensive on this vehicle" so i'm hoping that'll change once the 08 malibu (same platform) hits mainstream.

Can't get excited about a made over Chevy Equinox. Don't get me wrong, my 94 SL1 was one of the best cars I have ever owned and I love my 04 RL. But since GM took over Saturn, they have just become another name in the GM line up with no creativity. At least the 1st and 2nd gen Vues, while still kinda ugly, were unique to only Saturn...as were all of the pre-GM take-over Saturns

huh...well the VUE comes from Europe...not an overdone Equinox, it's called the Opel Antara...nice try though. Saturn is more or less just GMs European vehicles getting their chance here in the US

My point is, what happened to the trademark swoop line? Or anything else, for that matter, that distinguishes is from any other vehicle in the GM line?
