We all know Saturn Corporation, right? Well, many simply know them as a maker of plastic clad cars that often break down that many wouldn't get caught dead in. The new Saturn Aura is hoping to change that. Instead of the bubbly and quirky styling of the most recent Saturn sedan, the ION, the Aura has crisp, European styling with manystyling features borrowed from that of Eurpoe's Opel division, which happens to also be owned by General Motors. Inside, the Aura continues on its Euro feel, with a crisply designed and upscale interior, that used a nice blend of rick plastics, wood, and aluminum with little touches of chrome. Saturn intends the Aura to be a sports/touring sedan, and they carry that out with a 252HP engine and a six speed automatic transmission that can either be automatic, or shifted manually by two F1-style paddle shifters on the steering wheel. Overall, the Aura is a well done and well built product, and it shows hope for Saturn's future as a potent import fighter to not only the Japanese, but to Europe as well. And because of that, it is the car of the day.
