its worth a small mint. But, its only worth it for the person who 
likes it or wants it or is a collector. Its kind of strange how a box 
can make the price of somthing that is old or nastalgic worth more. 
> "Ya gotta keep the boxes" as my father says. Its like the sound 
system I have in my Saturn, I have kept every box, it does make the 
resale value worth more. I just wish the car came in a box. Kind of 
off the subject here. My Mother drove this particular car off the 
show room floor in Spokane Wa. in the spring of 1992. I bought the 
car from her late winter of 2001 and it had around 220,000 miles on 
it. I drove it back and forth to work (375 mile one way trip) for 
about 3 and a half years. The car now has over 290,000 original miles 
and I have never had to have a valve job or any major motor work. 
Stuff like alt. brakes, struts stuff that wears out I have had to 
replace. But the motor itself has never been touched. About 2 years 
ago my Mother got a phone call from Saturn and asked her if she still 
had the car, she told them that she had sold it to me. They called 
me, I think I was in the middle of Wyoming or Nebraska somewheres. 
They asked me if I wanted to sell the car. I said sorry the car is 
not for sale. They wanted it for some "promotional" thing. Saturns 
are cheap, they dont have a resale value. I wanted to get a loan one 
time and use the car for collateral, hell they where only going to 
give 1800 bucks for it!! I laughed! Laughed my ass off! I told the 
loan manager that the stereo is worth more than the car! LOL! Hell, 
good set of wheels and tires will run just about that price.
