I have had a Saturn L for a couple of years. It has been a very reliable car. I have the 4-cylinder with manual transmission. It gets good gas milage and I have had no problems. I would have no problem with buying another. And, Saturn service has been quite good.

I disagree with the Edmunds.com review of the Saturn L300 sedan. It's a quality car with sound, excellent build. The materials and features are top rate. The leather seats are plush and comfy. The 3.0L engine is powerful and responsive. Handling is as good as any car i've ever driven. The car has plenty of interior room, with an adequate trunk, but retains a small car feel, which is good in my opinion, making it easier to park.
No more Saturns for us!

3rd Saturn.....worse thing we did was get the L series. Glad they wont be making them anymore...Headlights and dashlights dim to the point where people think you are signaling for them to do somethingREAL safe on the highway with the big boys-NOT! The car was taken in to the service dept and we were told that it was INTERMITTENT DIMMING (FLICKERING) OF HEADLAMPS AND/OR INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTING-NORMAL CHARACTERISTIC. THIS MAY OCCUR BECAUSE OF TRANSIENT CURRENT LOADS ON THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM DURING NORMAL VEHICLE OPERATION per the TSB (technical service bulletin). 4cyl in the L series is weak compared to the SL2. bigger car same eng size
Well..

I purchased a 2002 Saturn wagon in Dec 03. I also had bought one in 93. I loved the one I had 10 years ago, but this new one just doesn't work for me now. My kids are bigger, and I just downsided from a Chevy Astro van, I went from a seating capacity of 8, to 5, lost a lot in cargo space & leg space, plus I can no longer see over/around cars in front of me. On the mechanical side, I had to replace the water pump after only owning it for 5 weeks, I checked the service report and it's 2 pages long! EEK!
The Word is VALUE

I wasn't considering an L300, but then I found out that Saturn has made it an unbelievable value. ALL of what I considered to be "must have" items are now STANDARD on the L300-1: Auto, AC, 6-speaker stereo with CD, front AND side airbags, ABS and traction control! All for $16,995! The L300-1 is only available with the 2.2L 4cyl Ecotec, which is very smooth. Every time I read a comparison review that slams the L300, I just scratch my head. Of COURSE it can't compete with a $24,000 Accord, but why would anyone expect it to? What they're not telling you is that you can get a LOADED midsize car for less money than any compact -- including Saturn's Ion!
