Front end is nice but the back is a bit fugly. The 200/200 is nice - it should do well.

I'm sorry, but I slightly better performence will not get me to look at a Saturn. Perhaps if they spent a little more time styling the car, they'd have better results.

Whiners. Sounds like it'll be a decent car that will ACTUALLY be worthy of being called a sports car.
As for looks I'd hardly call anyone who thinks the Toyota Camry a beautiful car able to judge how a car looks. :p

FWD does not equal sports car

Call me crazy, but the VUE was actually a pretty cool small SUV. :confused:

Whoops, I meant performance/specialty vehicle. The VUE is cool. Test drove one little over a year ago. Really nice SUV.

Interesting...you mean that for once, the GM employee discount might get us something nice in a car and not SUV? hmmmm.

I like the Vue too
Did you see the commercial where it was being chased by a Minx or a mountain lion or something ?

and the Vue was suppose to be a rabbit of some sort.

Yep. Saw all the VUE commercials. They were all pretty good. The lizard one was my favorite.

I like the fact that they'll offer a spoiler option. I'm not a fan of giant spoilers, even if they do double as a place to have lunch when all the picnic tables are full at the park.

Still wouldn't buy it though, because it's a saturn. My older sister owned two, parts were expensive, usually available only through the dealer, and changing the oil was a HUGE pain in the ass.
