I bought my car used from a Saturn dealership. Not only did they work with me to purchase it (I had bad credit from a divorce) but they called to check up on me at least 3 months afterwards! I have only had to replace the battery and alternator in my car so far. It's now 7 years old, I have 60000 miles on it, and it still runs like a dream. I have never had any other problems, and I will definitely buy a Vue next year. Saturn is the BEST!

Bought this car as a commuter car for my wife that drives 100 miles a day. We bought the car with 65,000 miles. No major problems other than replacement of the waterpump and rubber straps for the exhaust system. The car had been under maintained but in goods condition. Now with 95,000 miles, I change the oil and maintain everything else.
Great Little car

I bought mine two years ago from my sister, the fact that I knew the entire history of this car was most appealing. If nothing else I can say this car has been incredibly reliable. I've got 80,000 miles and there has never been a problem that would keep it off the road. Peppy is a good way to descibe the power, nt fast but not slow either, it's fast enough. I think it looks great, I think it's LOOKS alot faster than it IS. Hence I think this would be a great car for kids given the fact it has airbags, dent resistant panels, and looks sporty. However it is mostly plastic, has some body rattle at idle, and can feel pretty small.
Reliable car at a very decent price

227000 miles folks. Need I say more? Having bought this car at a Goodwill auto auction for about 700 dollars(with about 211k at the time), I'd say i've gotten the value out of this car at least 10-fold. At first I was a bit skeptical, but after a while I fell in love with it...that's right, I fell in love with a Saturn. Oh sure, poke fun. But as far as I'm concered, this is one of those "too good to be true" things that actually lives up to its claim. It works fine, and I only take it to the shop for oil changes. It is absolutely the best purchase I've made in a long time.
Best Ever

This is the third Saturn we have owned. We get super gas mileage, good performance, comfort even for my 6'2" husband. We love this car. It gets regular maintanence. We have had new brakes put on it. I had an accident in it. I was hit by a 4-wheel drive pickup with his back wheel, going 65 MPH and it just took my front bumper. It did not spin me or push me into other traffic. I could have been killed, instead it just took off the impact point. We have 174,780 miles on this car and we are very happy with it. Diana
