Dumb Saturn
 
What on God's green earth, would make someone driving a saturn that's lowered to the ground with black tinted windows think they could outrun a mustang that probably shook their windows as it drove by?????
This guy was in front of me on the interstate, and I could tell he was gonna jump a lane as soon as the on-ramp ended...sure enough he did. So, he nails it, and I'm just chillin' in 4th gear...give it some gas, get behind him, he goes even faster, and I shift to 5th...still on his bumper...then an opening comes up, and I drop it to 4th going about 85mph, and just BLOW by him. Then, I get stuck behind a car and he's behind me on my bumper, and as soon as the car moved...I nailed it into 4th again, my *** end squatted, and I was gone...didn't even look like he was racing. What a chump. I thought it was pretty funny!!!!

Is it just me or have you guys also seen more and more Saturns with the rice spoiler and hood scoops and cowls and the fat dual tip muffler, you know the where it has two 3-4 in. tips facing up? I usually see them driven by some ese'(I can say that, I'm Mexican). They're riced out with Dayton triple gold rims. Don't get me wrong, my older brother has a '92 Cadillac Brougham lowered with powder coated Daytons and I like lowriders but some cars are just not meant for it. They call them "Euros". I guess them ese's are moving on from the Escort.

The only good thing about a Saturn, or any front drive 4 banger, is that they are cheap winter cars.

Not too cheap! Actually more like a rip off. My Mustang was $4200 and it's in mostly good condition. The only thing they have over me is their gas milage.

The reason they think they are so bad is because nobody told them that its a cavalier
