and both opel/vauxhals iirc. Doesnt mean they cant tuck em under the chevy lineup. Id be more upset about the solstice and sky roadsters. I really cant imagine them not rebadging those at least

Same here

Maybe the G8, solstice and sky can be reborn as a Buick (since thats one of the few lines that seemed to make the cut?!?!)

I won't miss them.

i have a really hard time seeing the sky as a buick. g8 could work though, maybe take a page from caddy's v line and toss on a supercharger, then they could call it grand national.

RIP Saturn...the best company I've ever worked for...1994-2001.

Sorry, Opel seems to design almost all of them and builds some of them.

Vue = Opel Antara
Sky = Opel GT
Aura = Opel Vectra
Astra = Opel Astra

The Outlook is the only one that isn't also an Opel.

The Sky is a US design that was sent to Europe, not the other way around, and the Vue is a Daewoo design. Only the Astra and Aura are Opel designs.

The Sky is the Pontiac Soltice
The Vue is the Pontiac Torrent
The Aura is the Pontiac G6.
The Outlook is the GMC Acadia

I'm not sure if the Saturn models were designed by GM or Opel but either way those cars are redundant and we don't need them.

It has a different engine, different sheet metal, and different interior but other than that its a G6 platform.
