I like it
Rides well, and I love the polymer body. It has saved me on a couple paking lot carriage dings already. The passanger seat is great. When my wife drove, I fell asleep in the car. That never happened in any other vehicle but this one.
Nice SUV - Not the best.
This is a good SUV. I love the Honda V6. Brakes (calipers)rattle,relaying noise thru steering column - dealer can't fix it. Saturn could do better job to dampen noise level on the road. Gas mileage is pretty good - 19 city, 24+ highway.

I am glad I own a Saturn VUE
This vehicle is what I thought I would not buy at first, then I took a test drive, and that was all I needed, I am not sorry that I got it. We took it to Las Vegas, and got 28 to 29 miles to the gallon
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?
Pleasant Surprises!
Surprised performance and reliability. Didn't even want to look at the car when searching, but tried it and fell in love. Much like any car, it had a few issues, RT strut tower clunking, dealer fixed. At 49K torque converter went out, dealer fixed. Now I have annoying squeeking noises from tire areas. Volume down button on steering wheel changes channel, not sound. Road and wind noise from frt passenger door. Replaced tires rather quickly..less than 20K miles. Overall, love the performance and the look. Like it way better than 2005 models. Had some flaws, but great car. Dealer great at covering warranty issues. I love the car. First car I bought brand new and will run it to the ground.
