Great No-Hassle Car

I bought the 1997 Saturn SL2 in OCT 1996 I put a lot of miles (by my standards). Its now at 107,000. Drives great. Looks perfect. Mileage- excellent. Posted - 27/37. Seats do get a little uncomfortable for 4hr + rides. Audio system's quality was totally unexpected. Sounds great, more like in a Lexus or Infiniti. At 80K, Fuel injection pump got busted. $400 out of pocket.No other problems. Still gives about 36 mpg on highway. Overall absolute no-brainer if you're looking for value. Saturn's a real smart person's choice.

I bought this car for A few reasons, I was looking for basic realiable transportation with good fuel economy and thats what I got with my Saturn sl. Being that it is A 5 speed manual brings the fun to drive up from A 5 to A 7 rating. threw the winter was averaging 32 mpg, but have gotten 37 mpg recently. over all am happy with this car.

I have had this car for 4 years and I have never had a problem with it! It's great on gas and gets me where I need to go does not matter where. I enjoy having this car and anyone would.

Fun, Fun and Then Some More Fun

Bought this car used from a dealer. I was there shopping for new but saw this little gem outside on the lot. Took it out for a test drive and had a ball. Low mileage, one owner, clean and relatively cheap. So far I've invested in nothing but some sticky tires. The engine is a reliable, gas sipping little 4 cylinder but its power to weight is just right to keep driving interesting. It doesn't have the exterior fit and finish of an import and there are some minor interior design flaws. The driver's seat is a bit small for a tall person but there is enough leg room. The third door is great for loading large items that won't fit in the trunk. Oh yeah, did I mention it's really fun to drive?
