Is nobody considering that since Saturn is dead, this is a non-issue to the buying public?
7 years old is in the eye of the beholder, I'd say. Had nobody told me that this refresh was swiped from a past Saturn program - I'd have to say it looks newer than the current design.

And I'd consider myself an enthusiast - think about all the people who couldn't give a rat's behind. If it looks good, it looks good!
I've got to echo Number 3's sentiments on this one. While it is weird -- it's a smart, $$-saving move with the exact same outcome as if they spend a quarter million on a new design & tooling. It also regenerates some of the money lost from the killing of Saturn, in the first place. Anyone who has a serious core-problem with this would definitely appear to be digging for dirt, imo.
