I owned a 1996 Saturn SL1 manual with purple exterior/grey interior before my 1999.5 A4 2.8QMS (nt).

It must take quite a bit of self esteem and confidence to drive a Purple Saturn, not that there's anything wrong with it!

Default Funny you should ask...

I graduated to my A4 from a Blue/Black 1992 Saturn SL2. 5-speed, w/sunroof spoiler and the upgraded stereo w/indash CD player which turned out to be an excellent stereo. That stereo sounded significantly better than the Concert (non-Bose) system in my A4, and almost as good as the custom system I had installed in my previous car (before subwoofers became popular).<p>I put 145,000 miles on the SL2 (along with a +25HP upgrade) before selling it to my best friend. He put an engine in it (I had spun a bearing) and it is still going strong. <p>I have seen other people here mention owning a Saturn before their A4. I was beginning to wonder how many of us there are..<p>Even the waving thing someone mentioned here a few threads back in this forum.... When I first got my Saturn it was in early 1992 which was only the second year of production. At that time, they were still quite new, so back then many of us Saturn owners were waving at each other too!<p>Paul<br>'98 A4 1.8TQTipS in Pearl

Default about as much as it takes to drive a Pearl A4 with a slushbox... :)

Not that my masculinity has ever been challenged (nor do I care). <p>I wanted a white or light colored car this time around and fell in love with the Pearl paint despite some discomfort with what I perceived as effeminate overtones (I like purple too, but never thought of it as effeminate. Hmm.). <p>So far it's paid off, as it seems to be very popular with the ladies (despite my color preferences, I still prefer women over men when it comes to romance).<p>Paul<br>'98.5 A4 1.8TQTipS in Pearl (testosterone fortified by APR)
