Goodbye Saturn!!! :D
As of June 1st, I have officially preordered a 2005 Mustang GT, leather seats
and all! Comes in early September. No more Saturn for me! My modified 1991 Saturn SL2 has been a bit of a roller coaster ride, lots of breakage, lots of problems, but I still had some great times with that car. Thanks for all the help this newsgroup brought me. http://members.aol.com/goaway669/ |

Sorry to see you go. I saw the '05 'Stang at the auto show, it sure is nice
looking. Did you go for the 6 or 8 cyl? marx404 |

Got the GT - V8.
To get the GT badge, you need the V8. |

I always thought that was a mistake. You'd be surprised how many car manufacturers are only offering their high end cars with an automatic in the US. -DanD -- # Dan Duncan (kd4igw) http://pcisys.net/~dand # The history of human opinion is scarcely anything more than the history of # human errors. -Voltaire |

No offense to those who drive high-end cars, but considering how many "high-end" drivers have more important things to do besides driving, I'm not surprised. A manual transmission would almost force them to put down their damn phones/PDAs/etc and actually drive. /rant |

Even without the toys (distractions) drivers in my area are challenging.
Slowing to an almost-stop on a 4-lane road looking for an address (I'm guessing), changing lanes in front of you-no signal-then slowing down. And my fave is the Soccer Mom's in SUV's driving like 17 year old boys and their first car.
