Yes Sir, the Aura is a nice car.

It may not make much difference to some people, but to me there is a find line of distinction between the original Saturn in that it was designed from scratch to be built and sold as a brand specific automobile and the last of them which were some form of a Badge Engineered Opal Vectra. Not that they are the only one who have done that but the list of no longer produced automobiles in the U.S. seem to be populated by that concept.
That does not mean something negative at least. As long as Opals continue to be built in Germany I am sure parts will be available to keep them running for a long time.

ASTRAS are put together all over the world and the North American ASTRA was not built in Germany. The AURA was built in the US and hardly looks like a VECTRA. All are shared platforms as was the L Series, the S-Car never was.
