Disappointed with Saturn

I owned a 1993 SC2 for seven years and was very happy with it so decided to trade-in for a re-sesigned 2001 SC2 (having gotten a great trade-value on my previous Saturn). Well, so far, the rotors have warped, I've needed new struts and engine mount and now the dealership is telling me I need a new rack & pinion steering column at the tune of almost $1,200 - yikes! Also, terrible resale value!!!

Traded my '98 SC2 with 290,000 (original auto Trans; F-brakes at 195K R at 252K). Always averaged 35 -38 mpg. Saturns will last but do the routine maintenance. My "new" 01 SC2 averages 37+ MPG. I look forward to many years and miles of faithful service - especially at today's gas prices. A super value for the price!

This Car is the Best I've Ever Owned

I have owned a number of cars in my lifetime, but the Saturn is by far the best! The mileage is great, especially now that gasoline prices are insane! It is comfortable to drive and the lumbar support on the driver's seat is an added bonus. It's great both in city driving and on the open highway. I'd recommend this car without hesitation!

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?
