Pretty decent car for the money
We purchased this car used with about 30,000 miles on it about 2 months ago. It seems to be a pretty decent car. We have only had a few minor problems, such as the locks not wanting to turn if it's cold outside.
Dont buy
Bought this car in Oct. 2005 brand new. After first year, it all went downhill. Had to replace the Powertrain Module twice already, and now, my dashboard lights go on and off, the speedometer doesn't move, don't know how much gas I have and etc with whatever is on the dashboard. The car been nothing but hell to me and my wife. Truly wish I could get rid of it, but have to wait another year. Do not buy this car used if you ever are thinking about it. Completely garbage !!!
Let the secret out Saturn
It is hard to imagine that Saturn is not advertising this rocket. The day I took delivery and hit the gas my '04 Mustang was a thing of the past. The recaro seats are a must when cornering. I have a long way to go before I break this engine in, and I will love every minute of it. The redline will juice the bloodline. Please do yourself a favor Saturn and tell the public about your car. The car is fast, great lines, and you feel young again.
Saturn QC 2 with 2.4L engine
I traded a 2005 ION 2 sedan manual for this car - a Quad Coupe 3 manual with 2.4 engine. The revised engine, same as Cobalt, plus leather interior plus XM radio/CD/sunroof makes this Saturn a fun car. Revisons to struts and sway bars make for a nice firm and controlled ride - compared to ION 2. Leather is better than I expected - about as good as my old 2001.5 Passat GLX. Fit and finish quite good. No problems as delivered. Very good low end torque when compared with 2.2L engine. And the "deal" was very good - well below sticker plus $1,250 in rebates. Get one if you can find one
5th and last Saturn at our house
My beloved 1997 SC2 got wrecked, but we still had the yellow 2001 SC2.There were 2 before those. We liked Saturns. This one is cheaply made. Things are breaking! Window switches, back seat releases, etc. This dealership is nothing like the ones we'd used in other states. The car isn't as well built or as easy to drive as a SL2, gas mileage is horrible. Seats aren't comfortable after about 30 min of driving. I doubt that a 6th Saturn will be in our future. Customer service at corp level is gone down also. Too bad, they cared at one time about their customers, not now.
