I've put 103,000 miles on my Saturn since I bought it used in 2002. The only real "problem" I've had is the sunroof stopped working at 120,000 miles. With regular maintenace this car has travelled to all 4 corners of Ohio and back again with me and I've never had any electrical, mechanical, or body problems at all. Sometimes I think I have a miracle car. The original window sticker says 40mpg Highway and it's still getting that! About a year ago, I almost traded it in, but now everytime gas prices go up, I keep deciding to keep it till it dies....if that day ever comes!

I purchased this car after totaling my previous one. Although I wasn't thrilled at first; I wanted a Nissan, I have come to love my Saturn. I bought it 3 years ago and have put 85K on it. And the only things I have had to replace are some tires and a battery. I love the gas mileage, it has a great sound system for factory and it's incredibly reliable. I do wish the interior was in a little better shape, my headliner looks awful, but the paint and all the things still work. I was in a very tiny fender bender and my car looks like it was in a much more serious accident. The other car was fine. So, I wish it were made out of metal, not plastic. All in all, for the price, it's a great car!

I bought my SC1 new in 2000 because the insurance was low for a 19 year old male. I had been looking at a Mazda Protege or a Nissan Sentra and I am still torn over my decision. My Saturn has been completely reliable. I have had only few and minor mechanical problems, but the overall build quality of the car is low. The interior parts don't quite fit together right. The vinyl on the side of my seat is cracking, and now I have two lights inside of the dash that have gone out. Additionally, I have a 5 speed and the shifting is very strange. People who drive other 5 speeds have trouble driving the Saturn. I would think twice before buying another Saturn.

My Saturn is less than 3 years old and within the last month everything fell apart. I've already done $800 in repairs and now they are saying I need another $800 worth. Saturns are only good for a few years, so lease rather than buy. Notice that there are few older Saturns on the road. Resale value not as high as other makes.
