Ion Redline

I was actually thinking about getting one I've been reading about for the past month and I like it but I'm not sure if Evo or RL? Help me out

I like the RL because it's easy on my insurance but I mean it's no Evo.

ive driven the redline but i hate the center mounted instrument cluster and the plasticky interior, i would go for the cobalt over the saturn,
you do know there is like a 11,000+ price difference between the gm cars and the evo right?

Do you really want what is, in effect, a supercharged cavalier? I mean, I've got a turbocharged lancer... oh wait.

its more than that - the maintenance on the EVO is hell compared to something like a cobalt. Tires, brakes, Clutches, not to mention any mods. Honestly - dont get an EVO unless you're absolutely sure you want it.

edit: don't forget about insurance, taxes, and tickets and lawyer fees. *sigh*
