Yep 2007 Aura XR. 3.6 litre 252 HP 250 TQ, 6-speed automatic. Even has stability control, Automatic Temperature Control, and an 8-speaker 6 disc in-dash changer. I figure it's a step up from the Neon.

I just know how much Barry loves Saturns...:D

Thanks! Actually, that was a major thing for me.

Built in Kansas City, Kansas at the Fairfax assembly plant by our friends at UAW Local 31.

Yeah I thought all Saturns were built in Spring Hill TN. Can you tell me if you know what other GM brands are sharing this platform. Is the Pontiac G6 a possibility...????

I'll allow it.-----J/K.:P

That should be much more than enough for a DD (Daily Driver). It will do it's job in relative comfort and then, we you turn on your Marauder, you will enjoy it more because of the differences in the two cars.

IMO, it is a great DD that will not tempt you to spend ANY money moding it so that more can go to better projects.

Feel free to close this thread since I covered everything.

Pontiac G6 and Chevy Malibu are the same platform. [Epsilon]

I got the Saturn flavor because my wife [Jennifer] manages two Saturn dealerships.

You are indeed a braver man than I. ;)

I understand those cars come with 3 free 'moron driving lessons'.

You'll have to let us know how that goes.:P

I ask only because I don't know. Your pick of "flavors" isn't a clear "yes" to me.

Nice pipes coming out the back. Anything to keep the miles off the Marauder is a good idea.

As well as the Saab 9-3. BTW, I think that is a sharp car. Nice to Saturn getting more stylish. With this and the Sky Saturn is on a move.
