I bought this car used and had it for a little over two years before it died. First it was little things (that were costly to fix) went down the tubes on this car. Started out with the automatic shut off on the turn signal breaking, turns out you have to get a whole new steering column. Three of the four speakers blew and the tape deck quit working. Then the power locks went on the fritz. Next it was the odometer that went (no exact mileage makes it hard to sell). Then the blinkers quit working. Finally the engine blew. There were other things that went wrong under the hood also. I am willing to bet that I stuck more into the car than i did buying it.
best car we ever owned

Extremely reliable car, no engine troubles ever, clutch and front brakes lasted to 250,000 km, redid rear brakes a couple of times. Credit manual transmission(5 spd 4 cyl), good driving and highway mileage. Windshield wipers are junk, failed twice, parking brake and air conditioning are troublesome. Fuel economy and comfort are great, sometimes drive 4 hrs at a stretch, interior is a very attractive and comfortable place to be.
Great Ride

This is my 2nd Saturn and it is so much better than the first. (Before I had the smaller version and drove it hard for 3 years for over 45 thousand miles.) But this Saturn is a lot bigger inside and out. Is a very smooth rife and doesn't have that "tinny" sound and feel that most mid-sized cars have. I use it for business clients mostly and get nothing but good remarks. This one after 30 months only has 14 thousand miles on it and still feels and drives like new. And the service people cannot be compared they are so good. Which leads me to the sales people who really are non-pressure, hands-off until you are ready type people that are great to work with.
Bad Decision

Tomorrow I return my leased 2000 Saturn- LS2 What could have been a good car for Saturn was a bomb. It was a loaded V6. Too bad that Saturn put a gas tank suited for a lawnmower on a v6 engine. It's only 12 gal. The gas mileage is poor, about 18mpg. The biggest problem has been the engine coolant. At 17,000 had a major engine repair. Never trusted it after that for trips. The wind noise is deafening. The sound system is good but impossible to enjoy due to the wind and road noise. I would NOT recommend this car nor would I ever buy or lease another regardless of the incentives. They have lost my business back to the Japanese car market forever.

Very reliable vehicle with good hauling capacity. By the end of the 4th year of ownership, the chrome plating on front interior door handles flaked off. The top of the armrest/storage compartment between the front bucket seats tends to break off easily; having paid to replace it on three occasions.
