Our Cherry Berry saturn
We purchased our Saturn August of 2003. I wanted the 4 cylinder to get the Drive chain. The drive belts break,deteriorate too often. I get 22 mpg city & 30 highway, using cruise control. We have 58000 miles on it now. it has had one brake job. Other than that no repairs. It is our second Saturn, the first was a 2000 SL2. We sold it ourselves in 2003 no problems with it either. First looker bought it. Well, I digress. We have been completely satisfied with this car. too bad they stopped building them. Incidentally my daughter-in-law had a 1999 Sl-1 one of the first she drove it for nine years and my son drove it to work for two.
Not bad
wipers slow when on high, dark blue with pin strip and chrome wheel trim, makes it look great, good deal & no hassels.
MY LITTLE SATURN
I PURCHASED MY SATURN BRAND NEW AND I WAS ESCTASTIC. THE ONLY PROBLEMS I CAN LIST ARE: 1) THE STORAGE COMPARTMENT BUMPS INTO THE KNOB ON THE DRIVER'S SEAT WHEN YOU TRY TO OPEN IT. 2) YOU CAN FEEL MOST BUMPS WHEN YOU GO OVER ANY ROUGH STREETS 3) THE SPOILER ON THE BACK SHOULD BE LOWERED BECAUSE IT SOMEWHAT BLOCKS YOUR VIEW 4) AT NIGHT, WHEN YOU PUT ON BRAKES, THE RED BRAKE LIGHTS REFLECT ON THE BACK WINDOW, MY WINDOWS ARE TINTED AND YOU CANNOT SEE ANYTHING OUT OF THE BACK WINDOW. 5) NO CIGARETTE LIGHTER. WASN'T TOLD THERE WOULDN'T BE ONE.
Automatic Heating System
The automatic heating system in this car is terrible. In order to keep the interior warm in the winter, the temperature gage has to be dialed up a couple of degrees about every 20-30 minutes otherwise the air coming out of the vent is too cold. It just can't maintain an equal warmth and a constant temperature in the car.
My new Saturn
Beautiful on the outside. Inside car has cheep material for seats and uncomfortable, but everything else is fine. Rides a little noisy and you can really feel the gears shift. Glove compartment small, trunk is nice. Chrome wheels and pin strip really makes it georgous. Good experience at dealership and with service. I do recommend vehical very reliable, this is my forth. Good honest company to do business with. They stand behind their product. Bright dashboard colors take a little getting used to. For the money, awesome car, high safety ratings.
