THE midsize car to drive if you're tall!

What a great car! As somebody who's quite tall (6ft. 5in.), I can't believe the amount of headroom in the L200 - it's the feature that "sealed the deal". I had looked at a number of other midsize sedans, and this one had the most headroom/legroom of any I test drove. I took the car on a long road trip last summer, and couldn't believe the gas mileage I was getting - 45mpg on a hilly, winding stretch of the trip with the car packed to the gills and the AC running the whole time.
Worst car ever

Bought my Saturn used w/ 48,000 miles. After 2 yrs I had to replace my timing chain ($2000 to fix). Eating through tires and oil faster then ever. 2 yrs after fixing my engine it is now completely dead, finally had to sell it to the salvage yard for nothing. Timing chain broke again and destroyed the engine. 4 yrs in I started leaking coolant into the floor of the car, the whole under the hood started to rust and had to replace the whole coolant system to rusted to repair, also the battery brackets rusted to the battery. I had the car for 6 yrs and put over $6000 in repairs and now it is completely dead at the salvage yard with 146,500 miles on it. Would never touch another Saturn again!

I purchased this car after many test drives in other brands and after burying a lemon Contour. Out first trip netted 35MPG and left a grin on my face that is still there. I love the handling and performance and the comfort is second to none. The only problem has been with the Ignition key and tumbler, which the dealer replaced in a very fast and efficient manner. I truly enjoy the service the dealer gives and will certainly buy another Saturn.

My Saturn has been a good car with only minor problems. In the past six months (around 100k miles), the lighter quit working, the CD player has died and there was an electrical problem with my gear shifter. But overall, it's been a reliable car that looks good for the price I paid. I've taken it on a lot of long trips without any problems. It's not an exciting car to drive, but again, it's a very good value. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable, inexpensive car. It also gets between 29 and 30 mpg, which isn't bad for a full sized sedan. Maintenance has been very inexpensive.
Great Car, if you are deaf

Overall, I have not enjoyed my Saturn experience. Sure, they are nice, but that is all. The car has so many rattles, squeaks and creaks that it drives me nuts. It has been repaired 10 times in 15 months, mostly for minor trim work, but also for a new Computer and gearbox. It is fun to drive, but so are the Camry and the Accord.
