ION quad coupe
Well engineered. Easy oil changes with oil filter on top of engine . Quick change headlights ; pull 2 pins & headlight assembly comes out . Battery is mounted in trunk for more even weight distribution & easy jump starting of other vehicles.
Love my ION
My ION is the most agile vehicle I've ever owned. It can really get in and out of tight places.
BAD PLASTIC CAR!
I bought my Saturn ION Level 2 a little over a year ago, and about 6 months after owning it, every time I turned around, something else was going wrong with it. The engine bucking, clicking noises when driving, road noise, crappy cd/radio, doors unable to shut after being opened, broken hood latch...did I mention EVERYTHING in this car seems to be made of plastic except for the engine? I will NEVER buy another Saturn again.
Pacific Blue Bliss
Wow...the re-designed ION3 is just the ticket. Love the ride/handling and layout of the interior. The car is really quiet! Having traded in a 95 SL2 I was amazed at the noise reduction.
2005 ION3 Sedan - Auto
The car has taut handling, is tight and rattle-free, and I like the clear line- of-sight to the center instrument console. The car is great in traffic and very responsive when accelerating. I took it into the mountains and it handled a 4000' climb with ease. It was a great buying experience and because leather was retro-fitted by the dealer I was allowed to choose from swatches giving me a two-tone interior with perforated leather in the center section with foam 1/4" thicker than standard. I like the revised grille for 2005. I'm getting 27+ mpg.
