Saturn L300 has been great

Handling improved with 225 series tires over the 215s. Had slow leak in cooling system that cost $800. Small sensor needed to be replaced for $300. Back tail light needed new electrical parts $200 but Saturn reps knocked off $100. Overall, the vehicle has been extremely reliable for 80,000K miles. Excellent acceleration and breaking. No problems in rain or snow. Trunk space is huge and with folding back seats only increases. Plenty of room in back seat for people under 6'4".

I test drove this car as a loaner from the dealer. One of the first things I noticed was that the high beams won't shut off. I only had the car for 30 min. and all ready there was something wrong. The V6 seems to be rather sluggish and slow pickup. The L300 has planty of room up front. The seats however where not very comfortable. I think Saturn is in the right direction when it comes to price. The styling is almost there but is missing what culd be one of the best styles on the market. Saturn needs to make it with smother curves that don't end so abruptly.
most problem free car i ever had

i had the L300 V6 FOR THREE YEARS WITH NOT 1 PROBLEM EXCEPT FOR A COOLANT LEAK. IT HAD EVERY FEATURE FOR 22,000 DOLLARS. I LOVED IT AND WOULD RECCOMEND IT TO EVERYBODY. SATURN SERVICE IS GREAT. THIS IS A GREAT CAR. PEOPLE SHOULD STOP GIVING A GREAT CAR BAD REVIEWS.

I bought this saturn based on their reputation. What a mistake! The car has been in the shop on a regular basis. It is underpowered, gets poor gas mileage and I have taken a beating on the cars depreciation. Will never buy another Saturn or GM product. I am going back to either a Honda or Toyota.
I Love My Saturn

Great buying experience. Fantastic service department. Have done nothing but general maintenance and don't expect too for a long, long time. I also get better mileage than the window sticker shows as average!

Bought my Saturn new. Within 3 months it had coolant leaks. On my 5th set of tires at 64K, 1st set at 15K, and I called Saturn to complain about the tire situation while still in warranty and they didn't seem to want to help me. All the door locks, window controls, cruise control, power mirrors and heater needed replacing. The A/C does not work. It seems like there is always something going wrong with the car. It's a piece of junk and I regret ever purchasing it.
108,000 miles and still going.

I got to admit my Saturn maybe on the plain side of styling, but this car as sure kept me going from point a to b and so on. I have 108,000 plus on my car and majority of the car is original. IE battery and stuff like that... I have only had 2 sets of break pads in the front real original to the car. All in all for an American car its done very well, No leaks or anything like that. But I am starting to have a few problems with my front end. Thats to be expected living now in Massachusetts and when sometimes there are more pot holes and ruts in the road then there is actual road, Doing 65 on mass highways (I-93) will damage any cars front end (pot hole city). But overall a good car!
happy

very nice car. Lots of features for little money. i Drive 100+ miles a day, even the week there was a foot of snow on the roads (without chains). At 130k miles have not had a problem yet and i drive it hard. While my SL2 was a little more comfortable the L300 offers alot more room. The 3 liter V6 comes in handy when dealing with freeway traffic. reviews for this car seem very polar but i have loved mine since i test drove it. Take offs can be "sluggish" but in more then one moment of weakness i have raced smaller cars and once moving the L300 will get 100+mph in no time flat. I will drive this car until the wheels fall off.
Lots of Goodies for the money

Over all I am very happy with my l100. I had an l200 as a rental car for 2 weeks and loved it. My wife and I went with the 100 Special edition. It gave all the goodies of the l200 minus power windows, rear disc brakes and height adjusting driver seat for $2000+ less. It also included mags and a rear wing.. big plus for me. Saturn needs to improve the quality of the seat fabric.... bit on the cheesey side, and i dont know how long it will hold up. The sales experience was awesome. No compalints about the sales team. Friendly from start to finish. Ive been spoiled by it, and would buy from Saturn again because of it.
Great Value

Buy the six , the extra horses are required for turnpike ramps and parkway fun. Buy the power drivers seat.
