Feels safe, fun to drive, and economical

We have the 3.5 L fwd Vue. Have enjoyed the safe feeling of riding in an SUV. It is not large, so that it does not stand out as a monster SUV. It is a sensible SUV for safe and economical driving. My wife loves to drive it. The interior was a little on the bland side, so we bought an optional interior "spruce-up" accessory, that put some chrome-like plastic to the center counsel and to the interior door handles. Now it looks better on the inside. I do not recommend buying the paint protection package cause it really did not look any better after it was applied. Perhaps it really protects the paint, but does not add any better appearance to the exterior paint finish. We enjoy driving it.

This SUV drives well. The seating is very comfortable. The seat belt shoulder harness is adjustable for comfort. I get great mileage in the city. My 5-speed is fun to drive! This 4-cylinder engine has power.

Best value

I have 5 speed manual Vue with the 4 cylinder engine. After about 2000 miles, the car handles and rides great and is very solid. The heated leather seats are a plus. I can't wait for spring to open the sunroof and take it on some trips. Only criticism I can thing of is that the interior buttons and inside door panel use too much cheap plastic. But for the money, this has got to be the best thing out there. Saturn service can't be beat and (this is my 4th Saturn) the cars are very reliable.

SATURN VUE

It's great. I love the plastic panels that make up the exterior doors and quarter panel - they don't ding nor rust. As far as performance and fuel econmy, you'll be hard pressed to find anything else. The Chevy Equinox uses the same platform, but does not handle or perform like the VUE. 250 HP MOTOR.

I love this car. Although the onboard drive train computer did have to be replaced, so that was slightly disappointing. But overall a great car.
