saturn ion review from local paper (long post) - Page 2

CelticShadow · 07-12-2002, 01:16 AM

I got something in the mail today from Saturn with a pic of the VUE, the 03 L series, and one of the ION sedan. First of all, I have to say it does look like Saturn has come a long way. When I first saw a shot of the ION, it was the coupe and for some reason, I didn't like it at all. It's grown on me a little bit, but I still can't get past the 4 spoke wheels on the coupe and the looks of the 3rd and 4th door on it. Also, I'm a bit confused......the existing SL & SC look nothing alike in the front. The ION on the other hand, the front ends look almost identical. I am, however really impressed by the 03 L series which I had my first opportunity to see about a week and a half ago at the local Saturn dealership. I think if they were to switch wheels on the coupe....lower it, just a bit.....not too much......and do something about the overall shape of the car, it could look very sweet. It's almost like the entire Saturn lineup is now missing some kind of "sports" car. Although, with that 2.2 under the hood, it's gonna be one hell of a sleeper.

Hey Joe, did I mention I have 2 twin sisters who enjoy walking around topless and bending over to pick up stuff?

if you would have listened to me when we chatted, you would have remembered all those things ...... so did the doctors say it was brain-rot or what? curious.

dude, you aint got twin sisters! LOL but that does remind me of a funny as hell story, (anyone that cant take raunchiness dont read from here out.lol)
we had this guy that worked for me hose, he ws one of tacos friends (taco, was with me for years, I have NEVER EVER seen a more knowledgable turbo expert in my career, and your talking what? i had well over 100 mechanics come through my doors in 12+ years...) anyway hose was real quiet and serious and sometimes he'd walk up to a new guy and say, "wanna see a picture of my twin sisters? their hot latinos and they are always with no clothes on...of course, sounding serious people would say ":sure lets see" hose would then whip out a picture of his BALLS, LOL, SICK PUPPY, but it would always get people rolling on the floor!
craig, ok, i know im never ever gonna get a serious answer, do you have twin sisters? (or have you heard the hose story? hahahaha)

Hey Joey
Where do you think that the performance stuff for Saturns is going to come from?

If it bolts to the Cavalier Ecotec then it goes onto the Saturn Ecotec.

correct tommy, i wrote that also, that being that its platform shared will be a great benifit, espcially to companys like sps who can appeal to a much broader range of buyers.
more parts more parts! bring it on baby!
