Best Car I've owned
My L200 2003 has 170,000 and I am driving it like I bought it yesterday. Except for a couple of "creaks" like an old house, this car is a champ! Only had to replace the catalytic converter once. Brakes, tires, rotors, have normal wear and tear replacement. This car is the best car I've owned, especially as reliability is concerned! I hope to keep it going past 200K as it's been paid for, for a couple of years!
L300 Best Car I've Ever Owned
Saturn's L300 provides a very limosine style ride on my 120 mile perday interstate commute. Seats are very comfortable. Very quiet for a sub- $10,000 auto. Weekender drives into the Laurel Highlands tend to highlight the very good cornering nature of this car.

Great performance and value
I have loved this car. I have the 6 cyl model w/ moonroof and power everything, which help to make it an incredibly fun car to drive. The acceleration is great, as is the handling (w/ traction control). I have not experienced the comfort issues that many others have (i am 6'3 and a 38 waist), though i never ride in the back seat. For the most part, i have always found the climate control to be a nice bonus and fairly reliable. The L300 has so many features at a very low price. Because of its safety features (mine has side airbags) and the many other features available or standard, this car is well worth the purchase.
Malcontent with my Saturn
My vehicle was purchased with about 14,000 miles on it. I am so grateful that I purchased an extended warranty. I have had the following items to replace: horn, radio (CD would not eject), fuel pump, air conditioning condense, rotors, battery, one gasket, power steering rack, bushing, etc. I also have had minor transmission work. I am very satisified with the quality of work and the customer service of the Saturn dealership, but very discontent with the Saturn that I own. some of these items were basic maintenance, but it appears that I have bought a lemon. My next purchase will not be a GM Saturn. I am planning to buy a Toyota! I do not have any guilt about supporting a non-domestic car.
Piece of poo
We take good care of care, but it has been one thing after another. By 50,000 miles, I've replaced fuel pump, power steering pump, air conditioning system, numerous sensors, gaskets and seals. Had I not bought the extended warranty, I would have paid thousands of dollars out of pocket for repairs that I should not have seen for another 50,000 miles. We bought car with 70 miles on it and it has been nothing but a piece of crap. Don't buy this car, don't even wish it on your worst enemy. BTW, I got one for sale!
