I purchased my 2005 Saturn new in July 2005. I loved it until the day it died this past October in a car accident. I loved this car. I average 25K a year on my vehicle, so it had 125000 miles on it. I changed to synthetic oil around 95K and increased my mpg to 30 on highway, 26 or so in city. I loved this car. It always started, drove well, loved the convenience of the trunk/back seats that lie down flat. Went through two sets of tires and had rotors turned at 110K. I never had it in the shop for repairs other than maintenance issues. I loved this car. My only complaint was the road noise/ weather stripping was bad. It allowed dust to come in and it was a bit noisy.

The Saturn VUE with the 3.5 liter V6 has much more power and response than I expected. It is fun to drive and hugs the road. I took it on a trip from Southern California to Oregon and it was really comfortable to drive. The only thing that was a bit of an annoyance was that the seats are a bit narrow and the arm rests are too close.

Driving has become so much more comfortable and more pleasant, since I bought my Saturn Vue. I easily get in and out of the car, due to its height being neither too low nor too high. My senior citizen and handicapped mom can also get in and out of the car, without my having to lower her in or haul her out. I can see the road, no longer feeling as if I were driving in a hole, surrounded by taller vehicles. The seat supports my back comfortably, allowing me to drive without the old pains. The car handles well, offers comfort to my passengers in the back seats, affords plenty of "trunk" space, and offers a terrific sound system. The whole family loves this car!

If you want a fast SUV with all the feel and performance of a sports car then you will just love the Saturn VUE Redline. We have the Black V6. I test drove the 4 banger. Don't settle for it. The 250 hp Honda motor is wild, but the AWD keeps it on the road nicely. Do yourself a favor. Buy a VUE, and look hard as you blow past the gas hog lunch box SUV's out there.

I purchased my VUE based on other peoples experience of the brand being reliable. The one I purchased was not. The 3rd member started making gear noise at 17K miles and was warranty replaced by Saturn. At 26K miles gear noise in 3rd member was back again. Local Saturn dealership claimed they couldn't hear the noise every time I took the VUE in for routine maintainence right up until the warranty expired. At 29K miles the CD played started having problems. At 31K miles warranty work had to be performed on the front suspension (it turned out to be a direct from the factory problem). At 34K miles water leaked in around the windows during rain. At 45K miles I'd had enough and dumped the VUE.
