No frills, A to B car
My father and I cooperatively own an 07 Ion 2; it currently has 72,000 on it and runs as well as you'd expect it to. My main complaint with it? It's cheaply made, and horribly so. The road noise is unbearable, making you turn up the radio loudly enough to distract you on long highway trips (I travel 3+ hours for trips home & back for college). The interior is lacklustre: the seats are unconforming; the dash is made of cheap, low grade plastic, and the gear selector feels like you're going to break it when you depress the button to pull it out of park. I don't recommend this car for long trips, or in-city driving; short highway trips only. The gas mileage is sub-par for a car this size.
Cheepest $20k toy around!
I like the fact this car does not sell well because I would hate for some one to discover Saturn's best kept secret! I like being the only one around with this car. It is all mine. Not like a Mustang or Civic or SRT4 Neon. It's rare and it's fast, yet nimble. I have the carbon fiber dash kit wich adds some pizazz to the interior! I allso have GMPP stage 2. A non-voided performance upgrade from GM. The best thing is the supercharger whine! The noise the car makes under full load is amazing. I can't forget the dent resistant body panels. Going to the mall or just leaving the car in the yard I know its going to be dent free! Best car around for the price. Too bad it's in its last year of production.
2007 Ion 3 Quad Coupe Auto w/ 2.4 L
Compare this car to other cars in the same class like the Honda Civic. You get a lot more car for less money. Ride is quiet and smooth. The engine screams and it shifts very smooth.
So far...
Fun little car. Suits the wife and I fine. Over 40 but wanted something different and fun and this little quad cab gives it. Don't want speeding tickets, but it is fun to jump off the line. Go old man go.
Speedometer is in the wrong place.
Owerall, it is a great car for the money, feels and rides like a larger car. I love the plastic door panels since I never get any dings. The only major drawback to this car is the awful dashboard design. There is no reason for the speedometer to be so far away in the middle of the dashboard where it is impossible to see. If it wasn't for this one bad design, it would be the perfect small car.
