Personally, i'd move away from the saturns, but that's probably because they're not an attractive car to me at all.

Depends what you want to do with it...
Are you looking for a boosted car, and in F/R/AWD? What you buy dictates what your gonna do with it... If you just want a daily, get some boosted honda, quick and cheap. They can be wicked fast. RWD isn't really viable as a daily. Winter sucks; period. AWD is kinda pricier and throws you back into the daily category. Are you looking to do some kind of aggressive driving like autox/gymkhana/drift? Then choose accordingly. Whats your budget going to be? If you want a car that is just going to be stupid amounts of fun, get a 240. Haters can suck it; the S chassis platform is a blast and you can do ANYTHING you want with it. For a blast in the AWD territory, check out F/I swapped GC8s. AWD with no weight is killer fun.

im gonna keep the saturn as a daily..get rid of the 17's, go with a smaller rim/tire, 15's more than likely, maybe pwdercoated stockers..
as for the new car, ill eventually wanna auto-x or road race type of things with it, but still be able to drive it on a daily bases in the summer. 240 is a strong consideration. idk what else, im gonna stay away from hondas/acuras cuz at college, prime for the picking.

Whats your budget? There's got to be a price range; certain types of cars are only worth it if you can throw X dollars at them.

If you do get another Saturn, get it because it actually has what you want, not just for the sake of having another Saturn in the driveway.

Get a platform that you want, don't just buy another Saturn because it's a Saturn. I hate fanboys for example guys who only buy Hondas and their reasoning is "cause Honda is the best"...ok toolbag, but you do know that there are better pickups than the Ridgeline, right..."nah **** you dude, Honda for life"...don't turn into one of those lol

I can give you a ride in my car..its not particularly fast, and is pretty gay, but if its something you may be interested in drive mine and see if you want to put a Miata on your list of possible cars, not that I'm trying to convince you to get one, they certainly aren't for everyone.
