Default Hey! how in the hell did SATURN make a car I actually would like to buy?

Inquiring minds want to know!

Perhaps a competitor to the TT, at least in the FWD versions?<ul><li><a href="http://www.saturnfans.com/photos/showphoto.php3?photo=9378&amp;password=&amp;sort=2 &amp;cat=669&amp;page=1">http://www.saturnfans.com/photos/showphoto.php3?photo=9378&amp;password=&amp;sort=2 &amp;cat=669&amp;page=1</a</li></ul>

Default The Central Comittee should seize your TT for a comment like that >>>

That thing is the ugliest thing I have seen yet from Saturn.....

Default ugliest? no...my mother's Saturn is the UGLIEST thing this side of an "Asstek."

the "Curve" is quite nice to me, but of course it's all opinion. I actually had someone tell me my TT was ugly and reminded him of an upgraded Carmen Ghia. I wasn't pleased, but thankfully he wasn't a friend or family member, so I didn't have to disown him.
I'm proud of Saturn to put this car out. At least they are finally showing some life.

This is GM. If it ever makes production, which it won't, it will not look anything like that.

The Curve is not a concept car. It is a production model. This will be on the road later this year

Really? Is it a low-production model?

Default Looking at that pic again, no way that's the final production model. No passive reflectors or turn

signals for that matter! Hopefully they don't screw it up like Ford just did with the new Mustang... though I understand Ford not wanting to continue ripping off Aston Marton with those round turns/fogs in the production model.

It's interesting. Kinda looks like one of those toy cars that hit the wall, flip over, and continue driving on the other side.

J. Mays heads up the Ford design staff, NOT that hideous thing!
