If you're looking for a car that does well on the road and has the safety features to match, this is your car. Recently was in a high-speed crash-- head-on car vs. concrete barrier at about 55-65mph. I walked away unscathed--the car wasn't so lucky. However, dash did not budge and damage was significantly less than competitors would have been. I am glad I was driving this car.
This car sucks!!!!

I bought this car right off the lot in 1999. It had 22 miles on it. From sept. 1999 to May 2003, I have put about $10,000 worth of maintance into this car. Recently, I paid $2,500 to AAMCO to fix a transmission that the mechanics at saturn said had nothing wrong with it. This car is a piece of crap, saturn is a piece of crap and I will never buy another saturn!!!!!!!!!!
Didn't expect this from Saturn

I've had the car for three years now and I finally have the money to get rid of it and I will! First, it makes an awful rumbling and vibrating when it idles, especially when it's cold. Apparently this is normal for Saturns and there's nothing they could do. Then, due to shoddy design the interior plastic panel under my steering wheel just fell off one day. My spark plugs, brakes, rotors, air conditioner, and now heat sensor on the engine all had to be replaced before 100,000mi and it hasn't been reliable on starting at all! I can't even begin to tell you how excited I am to be rid of it.
Extremely Satisfied

This car has been amazing. I've owned it for 2 and a half years. It has been great with all weather conditions. The only drawback is with the leather seats they are very weather dependent. Yet you will get that with all leather, not just this make. It handles well in all driving conditions: city, mountains, and even back country dirt roads. For anyone who likes an easy to clean car, this is for you!
An excellent car for a tight budget

I bought my Saturn SL1 new in 1998. I have driven it in FL, Puerto Rico (big no for cars), CA and VA. Drove cross country from CA to VA and was far more reliable than my 2003 MPV. Not a show stopper, but it's reliable and economic. Great vehicle for new drivers. Not too much power. No problems for the last 6.5 years, only maintenace (oil, brakes)
