Re: Which is faster?
saturn:<BR> 2363lbs<BR> 124hp<BR> 122ft-lbs<P>mx-3:<BR> 2443lbs<BR> 130hp<BR> 115ft-lbs<P>the saturn will take you off the line because of the higher torque and lighter weight. it should be a good run though. it also depends on if either one is auto and how good the drivers are.
Fast imports only come on two wheels.

There is no way that saturn weighs 2300#. Where did you get that info?

edmunds.com go to used cars, pick your car, then click specs.

Re: Which is faster?
my friend has that exact saturn with a 5sp and exhaust + intake, that little bastard is pretty quick, they have really low gears, but if ur a good driver and you speed shift, you should get him at high first gear more n likely

Re: Which is faster?
from carpoint.com<P>2318 lbs curbweight for the sc2<BR>and yep 124 and 122 for hp and ft-lbs<P>I guess it would be the dent resistant doors, i never really imagined it would weigh so little...

Re: Which is faster?
I am not all that fond of Saturns, but they have more performance parts available than the MX-3, so that might be something to consider. Check out <A HREF="http://www.spswebpage.com/products/products.html" TARGET=_blank>http://www.spswebpage.com/products/products.html</A>

Re: Which is faster?
I know the LS2 dose its quarter in 15.8@88.3, has 182hp V6 engine and is supose to be the fastest saturn made. I think my money would be on the MX-3 GS, stock Vs stock.

Re: Which is faster?
ehh stock vs stock the ls2 would obviously whip a mx's but, since the gs runs like 16.3s stock

Re: Which is faster?
Well I was talking about the SC2 not the LS2 when i said stock Vs. stock. With a differance of 60+ HP between the two i'm sure the SC2 would also be at least a second slower, meaning the best bet would be on the MX-3GS.
