Saturn Aura
Price: $22,430 - $26,925
Fuel econ: 33 mpg Hwy, 22 mpg City
The Saturn Aura is based on the same basic engineering as the popular Chevrolet Malibu. The Aura is just slightly smaller and has more responsive steering and suspension for a sportier feel.
The Aura hasn't quite taken off like the Malibu, though. It could be the Aura's less conservative appearance, it could be a lack of marketing or maybe it's just that Saturn dealers are a little harder to find then Chevy dealers.
At any rate, while you won't find big rebates and incentives on the 2009 Malibu, you can get up to $1,500 toward the purchase of an Aura. Plus, you get a car that's a little more distinctive looking.
