Not really.

They're bringing back the Saturn Vue and calling it a Chevy Captiva, and its only available to fleet buyers.

I don't get the point, but whatever. Maybe it keeps the plant in Mexico busy. Derp.

Zombie titles always get me. What a plain, boring looking car.

The Chevy fascia makes it look like a baby Uplander.

That's pretty damn ungood.

Looks like Holden got the better looking nose shared with Saturn.

There is a former Saturn dealer around here who still has something like 15 new 2009 and 2010's in stock. The prices are very attractive. I remember driving the new Vue when they first debuted. I liked it.

The setting for the fog-lights makes the bumper. The Chevy bumper looks like its designers said, "Hey, let's add some fog lights... uh... right here! Yeah!"
