2005 Red Line VUE
We bought the VUE in January and have had no problems. This is the Red Line, so it is loaded. We have 18 inch wheels on it, and 6 speaker sound. Power moonroof. The six cylinder engine is supplied by Honda, along with the drive train. For the size of the car and 250 horses, it gets up and moves! Saturn customer service has been excellent since the purchase. We can call them with any questions regarding the car, and they are actually there to give real time answers. Bottom line, we are happy campers!
Economical SUV, great mileage!
I purchased a VUE as a second Saturn at my home. These vehicles are outstanding! My SL has over 150,000 miles and is still going strong at 30 mpg. I have not done any major repairs. The FWD Vue handles beautifully, and I expect to get many comfortable, realiable & gas efficient miles out of it. I was so excited that it fit our family (5) with comfort and ease. This vehicle was well thought out in design, from the dash controls, to rear storge in the hatch. I highly reccommend a Saturn vehicle to anyone looking for a sporty compact family SUV with great style and mileage. You should go to a local dealer and test drive a VUE. You will be amazed at the low cost of ownership and miles of dependable service.

Excellence and Safety
This vehicle is wonderfully styled with lots of room. The leather seats are comfy. The grocery containment bins are wonderful. Dependable. 50,000 miles and only one issue to deal with, the driver side seat heater stopped working. They fixed it within a week with a new part. Always great service with every oil change and routine maintainance.
GMs hidden gem
The 2006 Saturn VUE Red Line must be one of GM's best kept secrets. From the smooth powerful drivetrain, to the cool Red Line styling, what's not to like? The VUE's looks get rave reviews from most everyone who has seen it, but most don't even know what it is. The new ebony interior really enhances the interior, and the white (black at night) guages really add to the package. The electric steering is much better than expected, and the ride is just fine considering the enhanced handling that the Red Line package offers. Room in the back seat is the biggest surprise - lots of room for a 6'2" teenager.
Vue Red Line Sieres
The vehicle is still pretty new with 800 plus miles but the things I like the best are the comfort of the heated leather seats. The driver's seat is electrically 6 way adjustable, and is comfortable for a big man like myself at 6'4" and 200 lbs. It has plenty of headroom and you don't feel cramped. The power from the 250 HP V6 engine is great, and the economy is good. I'm getting almost 29.8 miles per gallon on the highway. It drives and handles perfect on curves and winding roads, and the supension is impressive. The VUE is good for the times I haul kids and gear. With the roomy interior, it's very functional for a mini SUV. I wanted something sporty looking, yet able to fit the bill for family needs and be easy on the wallet.
