Because their interiors aren't American they actually are super. Areas where american cars (and many imports) would use pleather, they acutally use 100% genuine leather. Examples are rear of seats, armrest, bootshifter etc...

I drive a crappy '96 grand am SUCKY EDITION, which is 100% paid for and will be driven into the ground before I pry my Kung Fu grip from the steering wheel.

Oh yeah, and it's DAMN dirty inside and out AND I WOULDN'T HAVE IT ANY OTHER WAY.

1994 Pontiac Bonneville SSEi, paid only $2000 for it two years back. Very happy with it. :)

:cool: car. I love the last gen SSEi's. Fun as hell (for a FWD car), roomy, quiet along with HUD!

I agree. The GTO interior is actually pretty nice and well laid out, unlike the standard GM crap.

That's not my ACTUAL van, but it is the same model/color/etc.

Up to about 3 months ago I was driving a 1995 Saturn SC2, which was a good car, but in my line of work I needed to transport equipment easier.

I got a great deal on the van. It was previously a sales-rep's company car, and I got it for the flat buy-out price of $5K. It has 2 sliding doors, 1 of which is motorized, and a motorized rear hatch.

Not the sexiest car, but I like it.

EDIT: Oh, yeah. If anybody living in the San Fernando Valley area in Southern California wants a good deal on a 1995 Saturn SC2 PM me. :D

Sweet! I may be in Bradenton this weekend, but I may have to leave the Turbo Buick at home. :( (there will be some VERY fast Turbo Buicks there Friday night)
