FactAfter one year the LS, LS1 and LS2 became the L100, L200 and L300, because of a naming dispute with Lincoln.
The Saturn L-Series was a mid-size car built at Wilmington, Delaware, from May 1999 to June 2004 for the 2000–2005 model years, as the LS (later L100/200/300) sedan and LW wagon. It rode on GM's GM2900 platform related to the Opel Vectra B and Saab 9-3 and 9-5, with front-wheel drive, a 2.2 litre four or a 3.0 litre V6, and a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic.

An estimate, for the 2.2 L61 I4 trim: fuel on its EPA figure and a dated national price, upkeep on a per-mile average for the kind of car it is.

It briefly served as senior sibling to Marquette, a GM companion brand cancelled after just one year.
Nissan hired former BMW engineers to help develop the 510's suspension, which is why period reviewers frequently compared its handling to the BMW 1600/2002.
A Trabant 601 won its class at the 1970 Monte Carlo Rally, with a second 601 right behind it in second.
The 600 was a stopgap: the P50's body over the 601's mechanicals, and for a while its estate was built alongside the new 601 saloon.
The G80 Sport brought a 370 PS twin-turbo 3.3 V6, a mesh grille and copper-tinted chrome with copper stitching to match.
The Vigor was sold only with a five-cylinder engine, an unusual configuration Honda used to fit a longer engine transversely under a short hood.
The GS/E coupe earned the nickname "German Charger" for its long hood, short deck stance borrowed from Detroit muscle cars.
This DeVille/Fleetwood was the first production car anywhere to mount its V8 sideways, Cadillac's front-drive gamble on the new C-body.
