Then you're in luck, because the Opel Astra, built in Belgium, will be rebadged as a Saturn Astra and will be sold at Saturn stores by the end of the year.
I was just reading the latest issue of Car and Driver magazine that Saturn and Opel are involved in a joint effort that GM is calling "look share".
Nearly all Saturns, in the future, will basically be rebadged versions of Opel cars.
Analogous to the Astra program is the Saturn Sky, which was wholly developed in the States, and is shared and exported to Europe as the Opel GT.
