Saturn Aura may get 300 hp Red Line treatment
Jason Stein over at AutoWeek says that GM might consider putting a 300 hp engine into the FWD Saturn Aura that was shown in Detroit with a 250 hp V6. I'm not quite sure why Saturn would need to do that unless they want to compete with the Acuras of the world and the base engine already seems to do that coming in between the TSX and TL as far as power. We can't believe we're advocating less horsepower but lets just see the darn thing on the road before we start talking special editions.
