Saturn Squad - Santa Cali-Gon Days

Welcome to Santa Cali-Gon Days 2008!

Families flocked to Independence, Mo. this Labor Day weekend for the 48th celebration of Santa Cali-Gon Days.  The Saturn Squad attended the event equipped with an '08 Outlook and the new '09 Aura.  Free water bottles and fans at the Saturn booth kept festival goers cool during the hot weekend.  

Check out a view from Santa Cali-Gon square and the Saturn booth on Main Street in Independence.

   

We were greeted by a number of Saturn drivers from Independence!  All the drivers were excited about the 2009 models and the current GM employee pricing event.  One Saturn driver posed with our '08 Outlook! "Now that's one good looking car," he said.

Van O'Brien - Olathe, KS

Drives: '08 Astra

Dealer: Saturn of Olathe

Status: First time Saturn owner

The purchase experience:

"As you know, this is my first Saturn.  I would describe the purchasing experience at Saturn of Olathe as easy and found the staff to be friendly and knowledgeable."

The vehicle decision:

"I didn't look at other vehicles, because I knew the Astra was going to be mine.  I looked for something that was cute and got great gas mileage.  I had an 'a-ha' moment when test driving the Astra.  The little guy growled."

The verdict is in:

"I just love driving my little Astra.  It has plenty of pep, and I just love the growl."

Will you become a repeat Saturn owner?

"Absolutely. We're thinking about the Aura next!"

GM's Saturn Vue: finally, a winner

"The 2008 Vue easily clears the bar set by arch competitors Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V."

Dan Neil, a L.A. Times GM cynic, has turned the corner regarding Saturn vehicles with the introduction of the 2008 Vue.  Neil feels the '08 Vue is the best North American product (with the exception of the Corvette, that is).  Read on to find out why the Vue has Neil ready to "throw rose petals at the feet of GM execs."

• "Handsomely sculpted, generously equipped (particularly in the safety category, where six airbags, anti-lock/traction/stability control with trailer sway control and active head restraints are standard)."

• "Another eureka moment in Vue comes when you park yourself behind the wheel.  the interior surfaces and materials are all very rewarding: the dense, rubberized covering on the dash-top and doors, the faux wood-grain wainscoting and satiny alloy-like finish on the shifter and steering wheel... The Vue interior bests the benchmarks in its class."

• "Maybe this is the biggest surprise of all: The Vue XR is a real pleasure to drive.  It's a tall, five-seat sports tourer, actually.  There's a lot of power, keen and accurate steering, solid brakes and a superbly balanced chassis that treats the compromise between the ride quality and road handling as if it were no compromise at all."

What a Great Vue!

I've upgraded. I'm officially the owner of a 2008 Saturn Vue. Polar white, leather, V6 engine... great amenities for a girl recently driving a Toyota Echo. While I'm impressed by the style, stability and safety of the Vue, I was extremely satisfied with the purchasing process.

No pressure. I felt absolutely no pressure to commit until I was 110% positive which vehicle was for me. The staff at Saturn discussed every option with me, from financing to hot specials I could qualify for. The sales agents asked questions about my likes, dislikes and interests. They suggested a few different vehicles, and the test drive sealed the deal. Unknown to me, I qualified for new college graduate discounts. I was impressed that Saturn withheld no specials - they were genuinely interested in getting me a great deal on a Vue.

Though it's my first Saturn, I'm already hooked. I've plugged in my iPod, rolled down the windows and sung at the top of my lungs. My Vue isn't only a professional and stylish vehicle, it's something I can be proud of.
