1994 Saturn SL2 - 5-Speed Manual - Retro Memory Clip, Howell NJ

Back in 1994, I purchased a brand new Saturn SL2, in plum, with a 5-speed manual transmission and options like a cassette deck! In April that year, I packed up myself with my cat Drakkar and moved to St Paul Minnesota (leaving from Cherry Hill NJ). Prior to that departure, I caught up with my sister in Howell NJ and we filmed about 2 minutes being silly and pretending to play the role of Mary Tyler Moore! I actually made a video from this original clip edited with the TV theme opening (which you can find following the links below).
30 years on and I long since traded in the vehicle. The Saturn was my 4th car in my then young life. The first was a 1967 Mustang, then a 1979 Celica and then my first new car, a 1987 Nissan Stanza (also with 5-speed). Saturn made #4. I'm now on my 9th car 3 decades later but would love to own a Saturn again and become a "classic car owner". Imagine if I had kept the Saturn and the Mustang?

It was a good looking car honestly, with clean lines and a cool front fascia. Nice color too. Ah, the 90’s… 🥲

[@drakkar91]

Agreed! Ahead of the times in terms of design.
