We just got in a "secret" stash of 2006 ION and VUEs. First of all, I am already impressed with the changes in the ION: Optonal 2.4L engine has performance suspension and sportier sounding exhaust. Engine has built-in oil cooler module. ION & VUE: New radio! Center large selector dial with tabbed red LCD display and better sound. sweeet. Lots of chrome inside. A much more classy look for the VUE. New 5 spoke wheels and wheel covers for the ION. marx404
