Saw an 06 Saturn VUE at lunch, too...

This was in a Perkins parking lot, and had regular plates on it...

It was silver.

Seeing it in person... I think the new front end has a "Suzuki" look to it, though better executed... I really perfer the old styling though.

It's not bad, but the grille does look really small, and I guess that is what is making me think "Suzuki" when I see it...

I like the old VUE front end better, but I like the new Redline grill the best.

I agree, I liked the old front end better but I still give the VUE credit, it is still a very nice vehicle.

Also saw a silver 06 Vue with the new grile. I like it IMO. Its a touch small for the large, flat face of the Vue, but its clean.
Interior is very sharp.

I like it...looks meaner, less plasticky, and more trucklike. Dash looks nice too!

Wow, like that front end. Looks good. Only gripe is that damn steering wheel. Ive only seen it in about what, 5-6 different models across GM's divisions. Its a good looking wheel, but jeezus design a few other ones.

Re: Saw an 06 Saturn VUE at lunch, too...

Hey now, that looks pretty damn cool.... When I saw the link I was preparing to be disappointed as I thought the current VUE Redline was cool lookin' but once I saw that first pic I was relieved. Good job Saturn. The only thing that I don't like is the chrome strip with the Saturn emblem on the front...That chrome kills the look, otherwise though, I'm diggin' it.

I definately can't tell the difference between that and a Suzuki... But it could get any worse than the old front end I guess.
