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.

We purchased this car in 2000 and have had very few problems with it. I am pleased with the power. For a 4 cylinder car it has no problem keeping up with trafic when traveling over the Rocky Mountains. It also gets very good gas mileage for a midsize car. Another feature that was important to us was the trunk space. It has a lot of room in the trunk which is nice on long trips.
Piece of Junk --- don't buy

Wow. What a piece of junk. Bought it with 45,000 miles. In 1000 miles I had to pay $500 to get rear suspension shimmed so it would align properly and not eat up tires or make a lot of noise and then the water pump went on it, which took out the whole engine. Swell. Thankfully, I bought an $1800 warranty, because the car was in the shop every other month. Bought the car for $9100. Repairs covered by warranty totalled $12,200 by June of 2006. Things fixed: alignment, waterpump (2x), rack and pinion, p/s pump, transmission (2x), front suspension (2x), etc. It is junk. As for driving, it is surprisingly quick, and corners well, though the engine is a bit loud and not smooth. Don't buy it.
I love my LS1

My Saturn has been the best coupe I've ever owned. I bought mine new in 2000, and almost 8 years later the car is still performing like new. It's only broken down twice while I've owned it -- both times the fixes were simple and inexpensive. The transmission is geared just right -- just the right amount of pep for a mid-size 4 cylinder, but not so powerful as to entice my teenage son to drag.
