Angry Sir.. your Saturn is ready!!

I can't believe this...

So I was waiting for the kids to dry off the car after it went through the car wash this afternoon. As I stood and watched the employees dry off other customer cars they jumped over to mine and finished up. They wave there towels next to each car when the each car completed and dry...So they finish up with mine and I hear the most terrifying words come out of this guys mouth: "Sir your Saturn is ready!"...........

I will lose sleep over this tonight!!!

What do you mean? I can see the resemblance. Isn't it obvious?

Hey, while I would get bothered if someone called my SVX a Saturn, I wouldn't bash Saturns. I still have mine (waiting to sell). It gets great gas mileage and is really dependable. Other than that, I admit, it's nothing spectacular. I think people mistaken the front of the SVX with the Saturn SL1 (model I have) because the headlights are similar. People that aren't really into cars generalize and usually open their mouth without thinking. Don't worry about it. Next time, just tell the person they're an idiot.

You need the clear corner lights - that will keep them from getting confused.

I know everybody is going to hate me for this, but as I was going down the highway I saw a white car that I thought was an SVX. I sped up to see if it was, and it turned out to be a Saturn....

I don't think Saturns look like SVX's from the back...I think just the front hoodwise/headlight-wise the SL model of Saturns do...Still don't mistake them, though.
