The car is quite zippy, something I did not expect. The interior is very well put together, and the car feels much larger than it actually is, with lots of room in both the front and back seats. The exterior has the look of a car that is much more expensive.(Several friends of mine, when first seeing the car, thought it was either a VW Passat or a Saab). The only complaint I have with the car is that the engine is a little noisier than I think it should be; other than that, I am very happy with my L300.
BUYER BEWARE IT'S A PIECE!!

My experience with this car has NOT BEEN GOOD. I bought it to get something I thought was going to be more dependable and less costly to own than the Chevy Blazer I was driving. Should have stayed away from GM! At 50k miles had to replace the fuel pump. At about 60k miles, started having tranny issues pressure control solenoid which I was told by a Saturn tech is an ongoing problem in the Lseries cars. Ok the car has less than 100k miles!!! too soon to have these serious issues and GM/Saturn customer service is a joke. Don't expect sympathy or cooperation.

Well first I had to replace the fuel pump at 50k miles, now the transmission, as I was told by Saturn service, needs a fuel control solenoid at a cost of over $800. So much for the "little or no maintenance" I'd heard about. When Saturn customer service asked me if I'd had the transmission service done at 50k miles I told them no, now I remember, I had the fuel pump replaced at 50k. Who had the money to worry about the transmission. The car at this time has less than 70k miles. No more GM for me.

My Saturn L300 was purchased in late December, 2002. I love driving this car! It's my first car with an automatic transmission and some real performance. While the HP is (only) 182, it's much more power than I've had before. I can merge onto crowded California freeway with no problem, getting up to 65-70 in surprising time (officially 0-60mph in 8.2 sec). It looks great from the outside and on the inside as well.

Steering wheel locks and will not unlock. Should have been a recall - but wasn't because it was not moving when the wheel locked. I ended up having a high strength steel key made so I can use a wrench to turn the key to unlock the wheel. The front passenger carpet has always seemed damp. It is anti- freeze.The O-Rings between the heater core and the heater pipes were damaged at the factory and has leaked ever since. Guess what? You can not buy O- Rings, you have a choice between new pipes ($65) or new heater core ($150). The 180 deg F thermostat is too cold for a modern engine. A higher temperature would greatly increase gas mileage but would blow out more O- Rings. This car is junk.
