General Motors has announced that it has launched a blog and social media site for its Saturn division, dubbed ImSaturn.com. The new site is intended to closer link Saturn with customers and potential customers, and also offer some exclusive content.
The new site will allow used to create their own blog or group, join other groups, and upload their own photos and videos.
General Motors views its Saturn brand as one of its youngest and hippest, so the new site seems to make sense for the brand. In addition, we like the idea that Saturn is trying to open an avenue of communication between itself and its pool of owners and potential buyers, much like Chrysler is trying to do with its own consumer advisory board.
They should just use the boards here at LLN…
Oh gee, I can't wait to be a member of this exclusive club. Maybe I could start a blog on why GM's Bob Lutz thinks that global warming is bullshit….
Well, at least "ImSaturn.com" sounds better than "Uranus.com".
Jeez people need to get out more
so gay
Wow! I'm going to buy a Saturn just so I can use this!!
/sarcasm
Did anyone actually check out the site? It's little more than an enthusiast site with some corporate bucks making it nice. Not the worst thing in the world to try, you know?
Damn I wish I was still young and hip and could be a part of this. Oh well, at least on LLN you don't have to pretend you like anybody, and nothing beats waking up in the morning and seeing what the hell you actually posted the previous night when everything became perfectly clear after the 5th beer.
Johnny, remind me if it was OK to date a chick with poor car judgment? I checked the site: 3 females one is 47 and looks very willing for her age. All 3 are OK visually but have those pathetic Ions with 2.5 doors. Even in my young and horny days I could not get a raiser for that.
autonut: there's a parallel to be drawn between women and cars in that they both look way better at the end of the night than the start. That said, my girlfriend in high school had a Renault Le Car. Suffice it to say we are no longer an item.
Wow, now I have a cool place to hang out. Maybe I'll meet some cool hip you people and have score some internet sex with internet chicks……
johnnycanuck, I have horrid memories of Renault 5 (LeCar here). It wasn't bad looking and was advance enough (5 speeds in late 70's or early 80's) but in Europe it had 1.0L engine at rental agencies. For comparo it was 1.4L in US trim. Imagine yourself on autostrada in Italy with no speed limit whatsoever, while it was 55 mph home (89! km/hr) and 100 km/hr in Canada and the darn thing would not go faster then 140 km/hr in 3rd/4th/5th!
Or yea, johnny, I hope you did not catch anything serious with her: French car etc
.
Trouble is she was English to boot. The only thing I ever caught was between my teeth. Don't they ever shave?
ooooo…saturns version of myspace
Great…a bunch of boring turds networking. The type of people who buy Saturns are the same type of people that are those new born again Christians who attend churches that play rock music as people sing, dance and sway back and forth screaming how they've been saved.
@anderson_b76 - some of us drive Mercury Sables.
But most of us are too young to have these new fancy schmancy Saturns so we roll in the mid-90s Corollas and Buicks. No different than your average college student, I suppose.
This could be one of the Saturn blog conversations:
"I hear that my Astra has 138 horsepower. Is that why my car is so fast?"
"No, your car is fast because it has ABS and OnStar."
"I wish my Astra had only 70 horsepower because gas is so expensive these days!"
"I hear that going fast is really dangerous. That's why I always drive under the speed limit."
"Astra is the fastest car I've ever owned. It handles better than even a Corvette or Porsche. I plan on keeping my Astra for 45 years. That 138 horsepower engine is a MONSTER!!!"
^ HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Yeah, how about this
"You now tat girl from our Molecular Physics and theory class"
"Yes I do"
"Well we had the best date on Monday night"
"How neat, did you disect a frog"
"No, we both went on a date to a coffe shop, then I almost scored in the backseat but I got a nosebleed, it was so awesome"
"Wow, your one lucky guy, if I weren't 1115, I could almost score to, but I'll stick to online dating"
