I bought the car in Jan of 03 used with 43,000 miles on it. It's a great economical car. It didnt give me any major problems, just a lot of interior rattling. When the A/C is on, the acceleration is horrible. The power windows gave me a little trouble, and I had them replaced and they still gave me trouble. The only major thing I have to do so far is replace the battery. Otherwise, just the general maintenence. It now has 93,000 miles on it. So it did very well for how much I've used it the past two and half years.
The Great PlasticMobile

My Saturn is pretty fun to drive, practical, and good on gas which is a great thing nowadays. However, over the past couple years, I've noticed that it's not as quiet and smooth as it once was. The engine rumbles when it's cold, the transmission is a bit notchier than before, and some interior pieces are becoming a bit rattly. The fact that they are predominantly hard plastic doesn't help. Saturn plastic side panels are a great idea, in theory. Unfortunately, in colder climates like where I live, the plastic hardens in the winter, so instead of rebounding, they shatter. Happened to the bottom of my bumper last winter.
Two many repairs for a kind of new car

After having the car for a little over a year there was a crack engine mount and problems with the exhaust system, resulting in over $700 to pass inspection. Recently a coolant leave occurred along with issues with the water pump, once again resulting on about $700 worth of repairs. Way to much money to have to be spending on a relatively new car. Already have 60k miles on it, but still these problems shouldn't be happening.
Pleasantly Surprised

We never even thought of the Saturn when we started looking for the car, but when we saw this car, it seemed to suit all of our needs, which were fuel economy, fun to drive, safe, reliable and you didn't feel that you were in an econobox. This car over the past year has proven to be all of those. The body panels are an added bonus in the northern climate in which road salt is used on the highways during winter.
Reliable and Economical
