New Saturn Vue

"The VUE Red Line comes standard with the new, advanced V-6 engine that delivers 250 hp at 5800 rpm and 242 lb.-ft. of torque at 4500 rpm. Available as optional equipment on the 2004 VUE, the 3.5L V-6 will give the vehicle an estimated 0-60 mph time of approximately 7 seconds"

and from what I understand "car and driver" its a Honda engine..
man if it dident have the saturn name and was so ugly it would almost be worth getting.

Betcha this gets moved to the Saturn Vue forum :rolleyes:

Not till OZ says so...

My neighboors just got one. Not a bad looking ride.
For a Saturn...

I wanted a discussion on it, not something im going to get from the saturn forums :rolleyes:

Oz says so. COT is primarily non-car related discussion. ESPECIALLY when the car in question has IT'S OWN FORUM!

Moved.

We're getting the 4banger engine. I'm pretty sure they V6 isn't honda b/c Saturn is owned by GM... Highly unlikely at the VERY least. They're really light vehicles, though. It's not much heavier than my car, and the 4banger auto is running about the same performance specs. The VTI engine is still really intruiging to me. I kinda am excited to have it around so that I can leave my friends in "shock and awe" when they don't hear it shift. I don't know much about the 6 cylinders, so I can't comment much on that. Sorry.

yes it is a Honda V6. GM made an agreement with Honda to supply up to 100,000 engines a year. go check one out; engine and trans made in Japan.

Im tired of hearing about if ita honda enging or not, to set it stright it is a honda engine. this is what happened, honda is comming out with a vehicle that is going to be desiel I think it might be the ridgeline but not sure, anyways honda made a deal with gm to trade engines with them, the engine from the oddesey for gms desiel engine

My wife drives an 04 Vue AWD V6, it's fast as hell and a very nice vehicle.

Definitely a Honda in ours. One of the deciding factors in buying it too. It blows the doors off our V6 5speed manual Camaro... - Mark
