I bought Storm Grey ION-2 with a 5spd manual transmission, power door locks, remote keyless entry, and power windows. I found the ION to have a nice comfortable ride, responsive steering, and pretty decent acceleration. I like the placement of the gauges in the center of the dash (took me only about a day to get used to), the free 1-year of OnStar, the 3- month free subscription to XM- Satellite radio. I think that the styling of the car is great and looks much better than the Civic and is just as attractive as the Corolla. I know that the projected reliability isn't as good as Civic and Corolla, but it also costs about 3k less than either of those cars do. It also has comfortable seats.
Solid Commuter

I bought this car strictly on price. Got a 24 mo lease w/17K miles per year for $222. I was expecting to be underwhelmed, but I found this vehicle to be a pleasant surprise. I got the 5- speed because I prefer a stick, and got an add'l $250 rebate. This car would not be fun with an automatic. The engine pulls strong in the powerband. The interior is quieter than I expected. It only took a few days to get used to the center-mounted gauges. I don't know that I'd put them there, but they work just fine. The only time it seems weird is at night, when there is no light from the gauges directly in front of you.
Good Stuff very few problems

It's very reliable I feel really safe in my car even though it's got plastic side panels. I don't know about the autos trans. but the manual is a blast! very comfortable gets advertised MPG even at almost 100,000 miles! Saturn has done good with the ion! Handles great! It's quiet inside the car. Very few problems Excellent buy!
Love my ION

This is my first compact car in a long time. However, I love the way this car handles, look and perform. Although I have the 2.2 L engine and an automatic, it moves. The steering is amazing: one of the smallest turn radious I have experienced. Everything works in the car. I love the travel package. The car has features of a bigger car, but packaged perfect for its size. Right now, I will not hesitate to buy another ION (or Saturn). I love the rust proof plastic panels.
