Best Kept Secret - VUE Best SUV imho

2006 Saturn VUE 4dr SUV (3.5L 6cyl 5A)

Was on the market looking at different cars and decide to check out some of the small to mid size SUVs. Needed roomy interior, wanted performance, style, good looking reliable American vehicle. The VUE just blew me away with the interior room, features, performance and price. After first 1500 miles still really happy with the purchase and the dealership has been great!

VUE for you

I have just purchased my VUE and so far I am very pleased with it. It is the perfect vehicle for a family with small children. The 250hp engine and the storage bin organizer located in the rear are two great features of this vehicle. OnStar is available on all GM vehicles but it optional. On the VUE it is standard. Gas mileage is great. There are a lot of accessories and packages to choose from. I test drove the Pontiac Torrent, Ford Escape and the Chevrolet Equinox. The Saturn won hands down because of its safety rating and price. Looking for a family oriented vehicle along with safety, value and affordability then the Vue is for you.

This is my 3rd new Saturn, and I have loved everyone of them! No major problems, just routine maintanance on them, even on my first Saturn('94 SW1) which I owned for over 8 years. I needed more room than my '02 SC1 had to offer due to changes in my life, so this '06 VUE was perfect. Roomy without being too big, and providing decent gas mileage. Very comfortable to drive and great power!

My first Saturn was the 4-dr sedan with a big trunk. I drove it for 6 years, and then went to get a new Saturn because my friends were right: Saturn is a great car, with the dealership providing great service after the sale! I wasn't going to try the VUE because my friend's seemed small, but I tried and it loved it! Stylish, roomy, decent fuel economy, drives great, and holds its value. I thank God for my Saturn!!

We have two of the 2006 Vue's - this review is for the V6 one that I drive. First off, love the V6, so much more (intoxicating) power than the 4 cyl in my wife's Vue. Same or better gas mileage under every condition too. Very comfortable, solid interior (leather), great storage space, decent radio (base radio with XM plugged into the mp3/ipod jack). 5 speed transmission is pretty much flawless, like the Honda engine. Doesn't handle like a sedan or sports car (and it shouldn't) but I prefer my Vue to my folks Volvo XC90 (T6) any day of the week. Could be quieter at highway speeds, but it's still acceptable for sure. I prefer my 06 over the redesign of the new 08's so, maybe my last Saturn?
