Whole saturn Lineup shot at Oakland University

Hi guys i was on my way home from chrysler tech center today and i happened to spot these two car transports in one of the OU parking lots. I drove into the lot figuring i might have a chance to see the new Astra. That was not the case but I did stick around long enough to see them unload their cargo enjoy

Re: Whole saturn Lineup shot at Oakland University

I really like the ruby red on the 2009 Sky. I also love the macho look of the Vue Red Line. In fact, I'd like one if they would offer it with the turbo 4-cyl from the Sky Red Line. The 3.6 just drinks too much gas!

I agree. The SKY looks beautiful in that color.

LOL not near there but as i stated before I was hoping to run into a new tester but that was not the case but getting shots of every member of saturns lineup (and not getting busted by the Oakland University police) were nice bonuses

That sure looks like an Astra on the end (right) of the 2nd pic.

true it is an astra (and a sharp looking one at that) but that is a current gen Astra I was actually hoping for a next gen Astra to appear (fifty percent of the time trucks like these carry testers) but that was not the case. Also I did not want to get too close because I actually crossed paths with one of the truck drivers before at CTC and he wasn't too happy to see me then and I sure bet he wouldn't be too pleased to see me again
