239.5 thanks to eagle eye unc

 

I agree. A few months ago I only knew about cars, not how to work on them. Now I have taken one of the S cars apart, and taken mine half apart and put it back together. it still beats hondas off lights.

However, there must be alot more here in jersey than near you, since I see quite a few every day. (however 99% of them are stock

Onto topic. I do see one or two saturn relays a week in my random commute. Theres only three of them as far as I know, I always see one of 3 colors (must be a mom since I see them on my way to and from class)

 

But! On the other hand I had never seen the Postal S Car until I visited my friend just south of you. The postman drive their own cars and Bubba had one.
He said that Saturn manufactured a number of them and tried to get a postal contract ***** and didn't so they sold them through there factory sales.
And he bought 2 of them. One is still stashed (as of a couple of years ago) and when he wore the 1st one out he'd start driving the 2nd.

I dunno, seems to me this was a project that should have worked and did not. The S cars when new had personality and appeal, at least to me anyway and in 91 when I needed a car to drive for a service business I worked for owners I talked to who I would see in parking lots raved about them
The problem at the time, which is why I did not get one then was they did not have a station wagon (or I don't remember that they did because I really wanted a coupe) and the fixed sale marketing placed them at about 1/3 more than the competition for a similar car.
I ended up with a Mitsubishi Van which is what I really needed whether I wanted it or not and it was (as I remember) some $4000 cheaper at the time. As I remember it was $10,000 out the door with an optional $1000, 100,000 mile warrenty and I ended up driving 270,000 miles and bought my Saturn Coupe later 2 years old and used.
And I still have it.

 

242.5 thank you Oct

 

We had about 10 postal right hand drive SW2's sold via our store. The gal that delivers my mail now owns three of them all white in color. She was a good customer of ours and two of the TECH's from my store have a shop where they keep her SATURNS serviced along with many others.

PS Saturn came out with the SW in 1993. I had three SW2's. 93/98/2001. Why in the hell I ever got rid of my 2001 I'll never know. I was a dumb ***.

 

I would love a wagon to be honest

 

245.5 plus the one I saw in Nashville several weeks back = 246.5

 

Saturns must have sold well in the Phoenix area 'cause I still see a lot of them on the road of various configurations. Of course there is no rust issue here at all even if the heat is brutal on the plastic parts. I thought seriously of buying a Van at the time I was looking for a replacement for the used (well used) MOPAR I was driving at the time. But two things deterred me from doing so. The dealer offered absolutely no price break at all so any inducement as to cost was not even a consideration. And at that price, they were butt ugly.

 

Found one: 2005 saturn relay

 

Craigslist Nashville. Probably the one I saw.......

So I'll leave the count at 246.5
