I just sold my wife's SL2 which I NEQ tracked four times until the motor
popped. (~164K) The weight advantage gave 90 20V owners a full bumper view
in their rearview mirrors.  The motor popped by oil starvation at high ~6200
RPM: a Saturn Enthuiast found that the Saturn oil pumps loose major pressure
above 6000 RPM.  I bet I found that out too.
At 2800lbs my 4000Q is probably gonna make a come back.

Case in point, a Saturn SL2 broaches  3100 lbs, which is only about 150
lbs
lighter than an 87 5KCSQ, which bears the weight of AWD, turbo and
associated
cooling equipment. Keep in mind, the Saturn is a slightly tight fit for
four and somewhat
districted luggage. A type 44, room for 5 and room for a few kids (okay,
kidding) in the
trunk.
