Gone: SL2? SC2? Perhaps a SW2?? (I am assuming you went for the DOHC).
Yeah... I went in to buy an SL2, but you know how cheap I am... I could swing the payments easier on an SL1, so I ended up with the 85hp, single cam, single throttle body, crank window, black bumper model. At the time I was an undercover insurance investigator, so I justified the purchase by saying that a more dowdy, non-descript car worked better for my profession than the flashier SL2. In any case, not a car worth fighting over in a divorce.
One of the nice things about their "total ownership experience" was that you could take the car to the dealer, and as long as you showed them a Saturn brand oil filter, they'd let you put on a white lab coat, put your car on a lift, and change your own oil. Of course, I just bought one oil filter, which was white, and kept the box. Bought a bunch of cheaper Frams, painted them white, and each time I needed an oil change, put one in the Saturn box. They'd just take a cursory look when you pulled up, so no problemo.
