For a small motor, darn good!

For a small motor, the car is nice. You really can bring out the HP after 4500 RPMs. But that will take away from the MPGs that most people want when they buy a manual transmission on a small motored car. All in all, i think that the car is fun to drive and is definitely worth looking at all of the other models also.

Since I owned my car 02/04 to me it was like a new car with only 20k miles when purchased. It did however, have issues which were upsetting, leaking doors, sills, trunk, it needed all new weatherstripping which was replaced for free. Had to have the following replaced: CD player-twice, entire sunroof replaced - twice, manifold gasket coolant leak into spark plugs/heads (covered under warranty),map lights broke,leaks under heavy rain, rattles and squeaks. Its been a great car besides the stupid things, I have a 5spd so its fun to drive, sporty and good on gas. Plastic doors are great but, still get chipped by parking lot parkings. Good car overall lucky i got the warranty to 4yr/100k.

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.

Not worth the money

I have had my Saturn in to the dealership at least once every three months since I have had it. For many of the problems (electric windows, AC system, suspension)I had to bring the car in more than once because the service dept could not find the problem. I had to make four visits for a total of 13 days for a knock in the front end. They told me that I should just ignore the knock! Past sales, there is not real service. I got this car for its sleek looks, and that's all I got!

I bought this car because i want a cheap one. For 4000$ it is a realy good car. The only problem is the engine. If it is warm it is hard to start the car. I need four or five trials sometimes.
