Chicago is a good local show but the US media either hit the NAIAS in Detroit or wait for New York.   Toronto on the other hand, is the jewel of the Canadian circuit.   I allowed myself some room for optimism when I first heard last year that Saturn would start looking to Opel for its design. I must say the Aura and the Sky were much better than I ever let myself hope they may be.   I had a Saturn a while back. I really enjoyed the dealer experience. I just have not enjoyed the product of late. I really think the Saturn sales network deserve some hits.

I loved my experience at the Saturn dealer, I just didn't love the cars. The Aura is WAY better than I had hoped for. GM may have 2 prototypes so Chicago and Toronto could both have one. Lets hope, I really want to see this car.

Does this mean that the prices for Saturns are going up? Some articles say that Saturn is planning to go upsacle. Replies to this message: logic1 (Jan 28, 2005 2:00 pm)

So I imagine you will be looking at somewhat higher prices than Pontiac but lower than Cadillac.   Think Passat level prices and you should be close. My theory at least.

GM says the Aura will compete with the Passat, so it will be priced accordingly.

i'm looking forward to seeing this car at the chicago auto show. i'm impressed both inside and out. way to go GM!   this could be the first GM car that's truly competitive against top end accord/camry V6 models and the base passat (passat is going way upstream with the next model).

EU law requires Amber turn signals and turn indicators at the rear of the front fenders or side view mirror mounted turn indicators. Also the larger rear plate opening reduces the huge bumper look.

rsx-sfan : I don't think prices will that much higher than the L-series when it came out. L-series were no bargain until they didn't sell. I do think the $5000+ cash backs will be gone (not needed)though. With a car like this GM could command a more premium price.   Venus : I agree. While I think the Malibu is close, this one will have the V6 power and premium interior. Hopefully the base engine will be the 170 hp 2.4L VVT.

American automobile standarts are less developed than European ones. I do not see the reason why GM insists in red turn signals. It is safer to have yellow turn signals than red ones, that are undistinguishable from stop signals, and also yellow repeaters one the side of the car.

Both our GM vehicles (Intrigue and Montana) have amber turn signals.
