Great Car For The Price

This is my second Saturn, replacing my '97 SL sedan. I am in love. The quality of the materials inside is head and shoulders above the SL. The power from my optional 2.4L engine is amazing. Fuel economy is acceptable, but worse than the SL, but at nearly double the horses its a fine trade off. I took advantage of the end of year and end of model year deals and got out the door $3500 below sticker, tax, title and tags included. I just hope I get as many years (9) and miles (190,000) out this new car that I got out of my beloved SL.

I bought this Ion new, a little over two years ago. For my first brand new car I was very pleased with my purchase and remain pleased as the miles add up. Utilizing a 5 speed manual and the 2.4L engine this car can handle itself with ease on the highway and throughout the city, I also average about 34mpg with a 50/50 mix of city/highway driving. The vehicle has been relatively trouble free with only 3 minor warranty claims. Besides that, I've just kept up with regular maintenance. Excellent car overall that doesn't deserve the amount of negative reviews it receives. ery happy with my Ion!

I LOVE my ION! I had an '04 ION until October 25th of this year when I was involved in a wreck and the entire front end of my car just kinda went...POOF! BUT, I walked away without a scratch..perfectly fine. We were told that they hadn't seen that much damage and the person standing there telling them what happened. These cars are absolutely wonderful. After everything with the wreck was resolved and the other persons insurance got us our check for the '04..we went straight to our dealer and got another ION but an '06. The two do handle much differently took a little bit to get used to, but I love it. And the dent resistant paneling is great for new drivers. Because we all know accidents happen

I've had my ION for 600 miles now and I love it! The 5 speed shifts smooth and fast. It tells you when to shift too! I got the base model for $13,500. The dashboard is a clever design. Took one day to get used too! I have test driven just about every car in this price range and this car has the best pick up for the price. The 2.2l engine is amazing! The interior is very roomy. Seats are comfy but could use a little more comfortable seats! But for this price can't really ask for a lot! Another downside when you have passengers is either your legs get squished or theirs if your seat is slid all the way back! There's less then 8" of legroom for the passengers.
