2003 Saturn ION 3 Road Test

To look at it parked on the street in front of my house, Saturn's new ION 3 sedan looks like it should be worth much more than its humble price tag reflects. Maybe it's the rich burgundy paint scheme Saturn calls Cranberry, highlighted by the classy metallic gray arcing roof rails. It could be the attractive chrome grille that does it. Or maybe it's a combination of everything. One thing's for sure, it makes a styling statement the outgoing S-Series can't match.
