Inside, the seatbelt retractors and climate controls get slight revisions to improve ease of use. The SC and SL2 get a new 135-mph speedometer, and leather seat upholstery is now an option on these models.

Great First Car
spacedude86, 06/02/2010
1992 Saturn S-Series SL1 4dr Sedan
This was my first car, and it was a great little gas saver. If you plan on picking one up, do it. It was reliable for about 25K miles before I had to put about $500 into a new alternator. Lacked horsepower or an real luxury features, but that's not what you're buying this car for. You're buying this car for a little commuter car than will get you from point A to point B. I thought it was … fun to drive. It's light weight almost makes up for the lack of power. Fun through the corners.

Very Reliable & Fun
Schrader, 10/23/2003
1992 Saturn S-Series SC 2dr Coupe
I bought this car for my wife in 1999
with 150K miles (hwy) on it. We owned
it for 4 years until we moved then sold
it to my sister with 177K miles.
PROS: Very reliable (no major repairs
needed); easy to work on yourself and
lots of fun.
CONS: Sunroof motor broke, starter and
oxygen sensor went bad but with 150K
miles you need to expect some minor
repairs.

America's cheap econo car

1992 Saturn S-Series SL1 4dr Sedan
I bought this car with 156k on it and have put almost 10k on it no problems at all. Great mileage 42 mpg at best 36 mpg at worst and 39 mpg avr. If you arer looking for cheap and a gas saver buy one of these. Pretty basic but gets the job done

Nice Beginner Car

1992 Saturn S-Series SL1 4dr Sedan
I got this car when I was 15. I got awesome gas mileage even when I drove it like a maniac. It is a good car for beginner drivers. I learned manual in it and so did my little cousin.
