    The '05 IONs are already being delivered already. The '05 VUEs we are still
    waiting on. Unless you are waiting on a 4cyl VUE with an 5 spd automatic
    (replaces the VTi), the V6 VUE remains basically unchanged with exception to
    some minor cosmetic changes. The '05s will have the exact same engine and
    tranny in the V6 (Honda)
    as the '04 does.

    Right now is a great time to get a good deal on what '04 VUEs dealers have
    around. I dont think any dealers have recieved any '05 VUEs so they are
    giving good incentives to move the remaining '04s.

    So is the VTi a goner? I actually like mine. If only I
    didn't worry about the reliability. What automatic are they
    offering?

    When is Saturn going to get around to updating their web page? According to
    it I can still order a 4 cylinder large wagon but there's nothing about the
    2005 large sedans they did build.

    Yea, would be nice to see a revamp of the Saturn webpage, lol. Quite stale
    huh?

    Dont expect any info about the now discontinued L series. A new line of cars
    will replace the L for '06 as well as potentially a larger SUV and sport
    coupe. The Relay is on the way! - sometime by the end of the yr.

    The VTi is being replaced by the tried and true GM Hydramatic tranny. Some
    had good luck with the VTi, sone had problems. I liked the VTi and have a
    customer who races his '04 ION QC at Moroso, no problems! But the Hydramatic
    5 speed automatic is definately better and faster.

    Are you sure it is "faster?" The 4 cylinder with VTi was
    actually faster to 60 than the manual 5 speed. It has been
    my experience that traditional automatics aren't any faster
    (and often are slower) that the same cars equipped with
    manual transmissions. This is one thing I liked about the
    VTi - it actually improved the performance (but not the gas
    mileage) of the 4 cylinder (compared to a manual).
