#19 of 22 I went ahead and gassed up in Safford by iluvmysephia1

Apr 26, 2007 (8:35 pm)

and totally forgot about noting how many gallons went in, so my mathematically-correct gas computation is going to have to wait a bit. We averaged 29.6 mpg for the trip today to Safford and back.
 
Filled up the car with Home Depot treats for the house and WalMart food goodies and other assorted items and cruised on back home.
 
Enjoyed the RF stereo playing the great Deep Purple tune 'Highway Star' quite a bit, listening to Ritchie Blackmore move all over the fretboard in manic style. We opened up the sunroof to look at the twilight Arizona sky. Gorgeous.

Opel has unveiled the next generation Agila (photo), the compact urban car developed and produced in partnership with Suzuki.
 
It will make its world premiere at the IAA in Frankfurt, September 13, 2007 and will go on sale starting from spring 2008.
 
Let's hope Saturn gets a version for the USA!

#21 of 22 More Verona "News" by harrychezt

We'll see this in Sept.
This article says a there will be a wagon, hatch, and sedan(Europe only?).
 
I dunno. I hope we see all 3. Here is why. Heard rumors of Suzuki keeping the Reno/Forenza, but intellichoice.com took these 2 cars down on their future car deal.
They have the SX4 sedan on there, and the Verona(in 08, as an 09?).
So, the SX4 sedan has more HP than the current Forenza/Reno(about 16 HP more), same size sedan as Forenza, so where does that leave the Reno/Forenza?
 
I could see the SX4 sedan replacing the Forenza, no problems(except for the lack of a few anemites, vs Forenza), that could leave the Sedan(Verona) then a hatch, to fill the void, so-to-speak( look at it this way, many sedans are larger than their smaller, hatch counterparts these days. The Versa: Sedan is around 176 inches total length, the vers 5 door hatch is a tinybit over 169 inches in total length..so Suzuki could have the verona at say 190 inches total length, then the hatch at say 182 inches...to make it seem like it takes on other cars of 180 inches total length. Ford is thinking of Mondeo for USA... why not Suzuki 5 door Verona?).
All guesses, of course. Here's hoping they do the right thing, and bring 2 or all 3 versions over in 2008.
 
take care/not offense.

#22 of 22 The Opel Agila looks somewhat by iluvmysephia1

like the Toyota Yaris hatch but with 4-doors. Is Saturn in the rumour mill to get a version of the Agila? From the GM/Saturn/Opel connection, eh? Interesting stuff.
