Yeah, it looks good. I think it will sell well. That said, this crowd is into RWD and probably a nice V8, so we have something else in mind. :)

At least it got the two tone interior I wanted in my G8.

The Saturn Aura, and the refreshed Malibu are claimed to be the most up-to-date versdions of Epsilon, which also underpins the G6 - yet the G6 is overdue for a makeover and the next gen of it is in limbo due to the new directive that no replacement vehicle can get same or worse mileage than the car it replaces and since the considered next G6 is rwd (Torano based possibly or sharing the "baby" Caddy platform), the G6 we have now may be the best it ever gets.

i would never get it over a g8, but i may trade the galant in on one for a dd if they perform well... who knows... i think they are much sharper than the latter version/style

I went to a school on the new Malibu. Unbelievable car. They had a Honda and a Toyota there for comparison. The Malibu wins hands down.

I wonder if Saturn having the Accord/Camry in the dealerships helped sales, as I think that is a great marketing idea for the Malibu to combat every ones stereotypes.
