Great little car

Bought with 125,000 miles on it. It runs really well. It is quite for a small car that is 16 years old. Everything still works well including a/c, power windows, brakes, locks and such. The paint looks great and clear coat is coming off. It is fun to drive and the 1.9 engine gets great gas mileage and has plenty of spunk. Our sw2 has the automatic transmission and it shifts well with no problems. I am 56 years old and have had all kinds of vehicles. This one would rank about a three on a scale of 5 for overall use. It is no firebird or mustang but it is a really great little car.

Bought the 1998-SW-2 w 97000 miles from a Saturn original owner.Vehicle was well maintained all its life.Ive driven the Odometer to over 103,000 so far.Ive only replaced the Serpitine belt+Tensioner and lately the original starter.New Toyo Eclipse tires are very quiet hence inside@60mph.Great heater,Well insulated Keeps warm inside.A-C evaporates cabin moisture fast.Keeps car cool in summer.Great fuel economy over 36mpg, on a trip.City is around 26-28 slow driving.Great in snow,slush,and on Iced roads,with-out studded tires.Predictable cornering+ handling similar to sporty handling due to all-around McPherson strut arrangement.Im pleased with the size inside for a over 6ft person,getting in+out is low.The Good,-Half the normal fuel use,7 bucks of fuel will more than get you the day.Parts are available as easy as apple pie.The ride is quiet+smooth,and the automatic shifts up+down like it supposed to.Transmission has a spin-on fluid filter as does the engine.And the doors are resist dent due to the plastic and pliable body panels.I like the wagon.I have the {Best-black-top} DOHC 4 version.

A solid, reliable, dependable car for the money! Great gas mileage. Saturn dealers seem to bend over backwards to make the customer happy. Loads of cargo storage with fold down rear seats. I brought home a twin bed inside this car!

Very reliable vehicle, comfortable and easy to drive. I love that I don't have to worry about getting nicks in the door due to the exterior build which seems unlike other vehicles.
Good Solid Car

I have loved this car. The only true car repair was a motor mount, which was pretty cheap to replace. This is my first Saturn and I've been very impressed. It is a little small for a full family. Would love a few more inches in leg room.
