[jrockb4]

I don'tknow how this perso rates GM vehicles in general, but the Aura comes off looking like a surefire winner for the Saturn folks. Fairly indepth and long review.

HAHAHA. I think the wood is better.

GM needs division-specific switchgear. Once they get their heads above (or at least close to) water financially, hopefully they invest in this area. It would go a long way in reinforcing brand identity.

The metallic trim is very nice.

There's no contest. The metallic finish is far nicer, more now. The plastic with 'wood-like' graining is so 70's. We don't even like that stuff in our homes, why in our cars? GM, if it insists on keeping this car division, needs to keep it hip, contemporary and fresh.

metallic trim > wood trim, but I still like both trims. I just can't get over the bug eyed look at the front.

I can't wait for the era of gigantic bug-eyed headlights to be over. So glad some car companies like Honda are starting to return back to slim headlights..like on many Accuras and now on the Civic.

If there is one thing I gotta hand to Toyota and Honda it's how nice their center stacks looks because all of their newer models feature fully integrated controls. Nissan is doing it too, it'll be so great once Ford, GM, and Chrysler start doing it.
