I'm going to say this again. Mike, did you actually OWN an ION? If you didn't own one, you can stop talking about it now. The center guage IS odd for people who don't drive it regularly. For those of us who owned them...I wish I hadn't had to give it up. Besides, if you're saying the designer was blind, then you're saying that the TOYOTA designer was blind, because Toyota had them first. Honestly, once you've spent some time in an ION, the center cluster seems gorgeous. Makes the whole dash so much more symmetrical.

I agree 100%. The S-series car was a good design in the early to mid 90s. Quite similar to a lot of other styles out there. Granted, Saturn waited WAY too long to update the design, and by the late 90s and early 2000s, it was definitely a little out-dated. Overall though, it was still a great, economy design, and did quite well early on.
