Now that my memory is refreshed on update/backdate (which would permit me to
put '77 BMW 320i vented rotors on my '83 320i for SP), I believe a bit more
firmly that this swap would fall into the same category. Considering how
short and relatively slow (compared to a track) most courses are, I don't
see that brake ducts would give any significant autox advantage. That's an
entirely different story on the track.

Before I became interested in them, all I knew of Saturns was 2-door,
4-door, and wagon, and each was available with one of two engines. That's
it. And even that's more than many people know.

Me either - it's impossible for me to tell an EX, DX, HX, WXYZX apart other
than the badge on the back (the Si is more of a giveaway). Yet the Honda
enthusiasts (not "rice boys") among us can probably tell us all the
differences, just like we can run down the list of Saturn's year to year
tweaks.

...96 looks just like a 95, and 97 on are the newer body style. The 3-door
came out in '99 models.
