The Saturn Aura (no, im not joking): http://www.saturn.com/saturn/vehicles/aura/photoGallery.jsp
or the Toyota Camry: http://www.toyota.com/camry/exterior.html\
I have to go with the Saturn, it is also rated the best by consumers and experts.

Last year Toyota had the most recalls, but the media "failed" to notice since millions would stand against them because of thier reputation. These days reputation is nothing, technology advances so fast it cant keep up. For ex: three years ago GM was one of the worst companies, now they have the most top-rated vehicles, and the quality/reliability surpasses Toyota. Honda is still on top of the reliability ratings. Ford also had more recalls than GM and DaimlerChrysler combined, for reasons like exploding engines and wheels falling off. Here is a quote from the Washington Posts review of the Toyota CAmry "one of which is the Chevrolet Malibu, which in my real-world driving experience has been every bit as good and reliable as the much-ballyhooed Camry but has been maligned primarily because it is a Chevrolet". Oddly enough that was an '04 Malibu VS the totally redisigned '07 Camry.

Common problems with Toyotas are plastic rattling until it falls off. People then complain that when they take it to the dealer to be fixed they just say "The cars are made with so much plastic its practically impossible to fix" GM is also the worlds fastest growing manufacturer, and that dosent happen by accident.

The Saturn will turn more heads, but the Camry is a much better car--and the new re-styled Camry for 2007 isn't bad looking either.

LOL thats funny how you imply that GM cars are more reliable than Toyota. Read any car magazine and tell me which company has a notorious track record for poor quality fit and finnish. BTW pick up a Consumer Reports magazine sometime or read the latest JD Power Initial Quality study and see which company makes the most reliable cars. Toyota/Scion/Lexus or all of the GM comapnies combined?

I'll be fair, the Aura is one of GM's nicest products to date. Probably because it was an Opel to begin with.

Otherwise the Camry has the Aura beat everywhere else. Size, power, features, etc. The Camry is more powerful than both the 3.5 and 3.6 liter variants of the Aura.

WHAT? What's wrong with you? NEVER EVER BUY A SATURN! You midaswell walk to a ledge and start throwing money over or flush it down the toliet. There is no resale value at all in a Saturn. Believe me, I bought one because I thought...ooohhh...cool...it's different and looks fun and cute and its safe and all that good stuff. But the car keeps no resale value and is poorly built. The problems I had with it you wouldn't believe. I will never ever buy a saturn again. I don't know if I would drive it if it was given to me, I would try to sell it (but I wouldn't get any money - dang it!)

Get a Mustang! I have one and it turns heads all the time. Even though I don't try to race people and will never, random young kids and old men try to race me all the time. It's pretty funny and entertaining.
