This car was my daily driver until the timing belt slipped and I loved this car. It drove very nicely and it has heated leather seats, power moon roof, CD/cassette/AM/FM, cold A/C and strong heat to make the commute easier, also aluminum wheels. There are many more options as listed above. The car has every option that was available for a 2001 Saturn L300 plus aftermarket alarm system and two key fobs to keep it safe from thieves. This car also has remote start. I drove it 80 miles per day and it got better than 20 MPG. The V6 was fast on the highway. One week before the timing belt slipped, I had new brake rotors, calipers and pads installed in preparation for winter. The car has been owned by a non-smoker and it is cleaner than most 2001 cars and as clean as many newer cars. Two of the tires are new. The dealer tells me that the engine needs valve work due to timing belt slippage and engine interference. This would be a good car for a DIY mechanic or if you have a newer engine to put in this car, it would make a very nice daily driver. I simply do not have the facilities or funds to do the work. This car is very clean inside and out as detailed photos will attest. I can send lots of detailed photos upon request. CarFax available upon request. Bid with confidence and be prepared to fix the engine. Then you will have a very nice daily driver. Buyer must pick up car from Southfield, Michigan within 5 days of auction close. Car can not be driven in present condition and must be towed. |

Honda wins Commercial of the Decade, but not for the ad you think [w/VIDEO]
Fri, 18 Dec 2009Honda's Commercial of the Decade: "Grrr" - Click above to watch video
The mad men at Adweek recently voted for the Commercial of the Decade (Super Bowl commercials not included) and Honda took top honors over memorable ads from the last ten years by companies like Nike, Budweiser and Sony. That's not a big surprise considering Honda often puts a huge amount of effort into its on-air spots. However, the Japanese automaker didn't win for the commercial you might have expected: "Cog." Though Honda's famous commercial that breaks down a European Accord Tourer into a Rube Goldberg-esque machine was also a finalist, it was beaten by another Honda commercial called "Grrr" that's narrated by Garrison Keillor of all people. You've probably never seen it, but you can after the jump.
Volkswagen also made the list of finalists, but the particular ad chosen out of all the comical VW ads we've seen was unexpected as well. Most surprising carmaker with a commercial in the finals: Saturn. Who knew...
Recalled Saturn Ion facing separate federal safety probe
Fri, 21 Mar 2014General Motors may be staring down another recall campaign for one of its models already embroiled in its high-profile ignition recall. The 2003-2007 Saturn Ion is already among the 1.6-million vehicles being recalled for faulty ignition switches, and now new light is being shed on a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation over 2004-2007 models centering on a loss of power steering.
The government safety regulator has received 846 complaints about the problem and claims that GM has had 3,489 reports of failure. Of those cases, there have been 16 accidents and 2 injuries reported, according to Automotive News. While NHTSA has been conducting an investigation since September 2011, no recall has been issued yet.
The inquiry's length was brought to light by an organization called the National Legal and Policy Center that alleges GM and NHTSA have known about the problem but are delaying a recall. It has sent a letter to CEO Mary Barra asking "to recall Saturn Ions for the model years 2004 through 2007 without further delay." The letter in question is available in full on the group's website.
VIDEO: Saturn's demise? We blame Jim Gaffigan*

When the deal to sell Saturn to Penske Automotive fell through, there were likely a lot of surprised people at General Motors' Detroit, MI headquarters. Penske released a statement saying that the reason the deal fell through after months of good faith negotiations was that a suitable post-GM supply of vehicles could not be found. However, after reacquainting ourselves with over eight minutes of outtakes from Jim Gaffigan's old Saturn commercial, we're thinking the comedic pitchman is to blame.
