Saturn is weak sauce and ugly as sin. Neon is and will be faster, and IMO a bit better looking, especially once you put some Goldline lowering springs on it.
This choice is a no brainer IMO

Srt-4. Saturn Blow's. Just dont hope for any sort of resale on that car either.

the Neons are pretty cool, a guy at my work has one with a blow off valve that sounds like someone's shooting a .38 in the air. That alone made me like those cars.
putting a S/C in an Ion is like putting makeup on an ugly chick, alll you have in the end is an ugly chick with makeup on get the point? my wife drives an Ion and it's got the crappiest interior design of ANY new car IMO Duane

All you are getting here is opinions and the only one that matters is yours. Ask for both for an extended overnight test drive and pick the one that you like the best.

SRT-4= very nice, good performer. Although this is a funny movie makin fun of SRT-4 owners http://www.radford.edu/~jseemuell/neons.wmv
Ion Coupe= valient attempt, but jusssst falls short of par..hmm sounds vaguely familar with the rest of the GM's products..
