Used 2001 Saturn S-Series Sedan Consumer Reviews
great for the price
I purchased this car after I totaled my 1998 Grand Am GT. For my job I drive a LOT, about 2500 miles a month. It has been great since I can keep more of my money. I haven't had to fix it, it takes half as much gas as the dual exhaust GT, and it is completely reliable. Although it is not the best looking car or the most comfortable, (the interior is tiny), I love that it was cheap and I am not spending all my hard earned dough in a money pit like I was my Grand Am. I bought it for 7k, and it only had 18k miles on it. It is a great car for one or two, but when we have kids I will prob get a VUE.
Great Economy Car
I couldn't disagree more with some of the negative reviews that people have left. I bought this car as a commuter/winter car...drive 110 miles per day and other car is a convertible Jag. I'm 6'4" and I feel it has very ample head and leg room, and my back never hurts after my daily commute. I bought the car with 49,000 miles on it, have 64,000 now and have only had to get a cheap gasket replaced. I highly recommend this car to anyone who wants cheap, comfortable, and reliable transportation.
A very reliable vehicle
I loved my Saturn. It has been a trouble free car for me since I owned it from day 1. I don't have to do any repair other than normal wear and tear. This car is easy to drive and very reliable. Although it might be a little under power, it is great for communting because of the fuel efficiency. This is the only car I ever owned that is rust proof after going through many snowy winters.
This is a good car for the money
It has been almost 3 years since I purchased my 2001 Saturn SL1. I have yet to have a serious problem with the car, and with the exception of regular oil changes (which I am religious about), the car has run reliably all this time. Get the 5-speed manual transmission, as GM manual transmissions are known for their reliability.
A good review
I love this car, it's reliable, comfortable, and extremely cheap on gas. It great for getting around in the city.
