This is my third Saturn and second VUE I have owned. I traded a 2003 VUE in on this one and am very glad I did. The change in engine in 2006 is a nice improvement as is the improved interior design. The 2006 is quite peppy and fun to drive. If it is as reliable as my 2003 (no problems what so ever) I will be thrilled. Selling dealer was very nice and located the car I wanted. Easy place to do business. The Chrome package really adds a lot to the looks of the VUE. The 6-disc CD player is also nice because it plays MP3 CDs as well. Great car for the money!!!!
Excellent Bargain

We own a 97 Saturn, and it has been a reliable car, needing few repairs. When it was time to buy another vehicle, I didn't even consider the VUE because I had seen the first year model (2002?) and wasn't impressed. I was looking at the Toyota Highlander and Honda Pilot, but they cost too much, and I didn't much care for the Toyota Rav4 and Honda CRV. I read a review that said the VUE had been upgraded for 2006, so I went to take a look....WOW, what an improvement! I now have 4000 miles on my VUE and have had ZERO problems. The Honda engine is smooth and powerful and I get about 22 mpg, even though about 50% of the miles are at 70 mph.... I didn't get many options, just side air bags.
Great Vue from 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?

Bought it new off the lot. opted for a little better milage over the AWD. BIG mistake !!!! This is one of the worst vehicles I've ever driven in the snow. Tires are too wide, and the anti-lock brakes are WAY to touchy. Just seems like in snow, the anti- locks go on and there is no braking at all ! Traction control via the throttle reacts way too slow too. I also have a "02" Saturn wagon. Traction control via brakes and anti- lock are much better. NOt to mention, on the wagon you can turn it off with a button. On the Vue your stuck with it, unless you want to drive in Lo gear. Had it in three times to the dealer before warranty ran out "Nothing wrong with it!" ????????
