Default Opel.

My co-worker said he went to a saturn dealer and they told him they are going to be selling Opel's.

he was interested in the Opel Astra GTC...

Fuck him. Dont ask our opinions unless they are for you and you only. This isnt a third party congregation.

wrong

yes, GM is bringing the Opel line to the US, but not as opel ... what GM is doing is rebadging it all as saturn

opel vectra wagon is supposed to hit the US next year as a saturn

and the word is the astra will replace the ion in the saturn line

also gm execs have said that the opel corsa will come into the US as a saturn soon

also opel is already being rebadged here ... where do you think the saturn sky came from

The Cadillac Catera that was out in the late 90's, early 00's, was an Opel.

The Catera was a piece of shit that fell apart in less than a year, reminiscent of the K-car.

Fuck GM rebadging Opel as Saturn, why not just bring back a proven badge as it is supposed to be named instead of this shit they are giving us. Don't care if it's the same car or not.

Doesn't look half bad, IMO. Other than the fact that it says "Saturn."

Oh, and --
