I say enough is enough with Saturn. Just dump the brand strategy for it, adopt the Opel crest and image, and then at least you can justify the prices for the Astra, etc.

And having Opel/Saab stores may not be all that amiss from what they have in Europe.

But that's just me - and its an old rant from where I'm seated.
No, A lot of people think the same. Saturn is cheap cheap plastic cars. (To the American public) They should phase out Saturn, and if they insist bring Opel here. Personally I think they would do better as Pontiacs, since Holden is nothing but rebadged Opels and the Holden developed RWD cars. Also Pontiac has a larger dealer network than Saturn, and it wouldnt cost much to rebadge them as Pontiacs than to bring Opel here and go through that hassle.
