While this model is not a head turner, it is excellent at what it was built for. After two and a half years and over 72000 miles, I've only had to replace the tires (other than scheduled maintainence). Not only has the SL1 proven to be reliable, it is also very economical. I average 41mpg in mixed driving, which is much better than I have seen advertised. Good news for those of us who are not yet sold on the gas/electric go-carts now available.

Reliable car. I have owned mine for only 6 months, but I bought it after my husband deployed and have not had a problem yet. Performs well- the only problem for me is acceleration on hills.

I have had the car for two an a half years, and have not had it back to the dealer once for any problems. The only imperfection I have had was the headlights needed alignment, otherwise perfect. Handles and rides very well, back seat not too roomy, especially with more than one occupant. Engine slightly under-powered, but very reliable.

I have had my SL1 Saturn ever since December. It already had 65,000 miles on it when I bought it. Even though it had a lot of mileage, I have had no major problems with it thus far. I really like the sound system in the car, and I love how the back seats fold down so I put speakers in my car (yes, i am a teenager). Even though I wish I had a Firebird or Mustang, i really enjoy this it as my 1st car and wouldn't trade it for anything (except for a black instead of gold exterior).

I purchased my Saturn SL2 in 2000 and have had relatively maintenance-free experiences since. Problems I've encountered: 1) the sunroof motor went bad and had to replace entire sunroof; 2) electric window switch was replaced. Other than that, it's still running pretty great!
