The Saturn needs to improve on road ride, and performance. There are lots of nosies and raquet continuaslly. But if you need a reliable every day driver i suggest the saturn.
Most reliable car I have owned

We bought our 1997 SL2 in early 4/97 after giving our 93 SL2 to our daughter for college transportation. The 97 has 130K plus miles on it and still runs like a new one. Had some minor problems with the sunroof after the warranty was over, but it was an easy fix and not grossly expensive. No other major repair problems. We just change the oil every 3K miles and keep it tuned up and it treats us great. The seat comfort is not the best, but the Saturn is a great commuter car. We moved from CA to CO and discovered the SL2 does great in the snow and ice. We also found out that when the ABS does not stop you soon enough, front end repairs are fairly reasonable compared to metal body cars.

Bought this car new from Saturn of Albany. These cars have similar problems that go wrong, like coolant temperature sensors/tensioner pulley/burning oil in later years/EGR valve cleaning/ throttle body cleaning/upper motor mount/ etc. These cars are easy to work on and inexpensive to own if you do your homework.. I now have over 180,000 miles on my Saturn and expect it to last another 180,000 miles.
Nice

94-96 saturns had extended the warrentee to 100,000 on the head due to a faulty design. My 97 sl1 had a head go out at 56000 miles and saturn would not cover any of the costs. On going problems of electrical componets and poor service at saturn of appleton is just cause for my feelings of all saturns.
