I bought my first 2006 Saturn Vue 5 years ago and loved it so much I bought another 2006 Vue a few months ago. Both are all-wheel drive and equipped with a smooth, powerful Honda V6 engine and drivetrain. GM only used the Honda drivetrain for two years in the Vue, 2006 and 2007, so those are the Vues you want to look for. One has 106,000 miles on the odometer and the other has 121,000, low mileage for a Honda drivetrain! The V6 puts out 250 horse and can do 0-60 in a very impressive 6.7 seconds! With an emphasis on a tapered roofline on many of today's mid-size or compact SUV's, the more squared off design of the 2006 Vue gives you more room to haul tall objects. Say what you want about Saturn's use of plastic fenders and door panels, these still look brand new on both vehicles 13 years later. Finally, living in North Dakota, I know something about cold and snow. The Vues are good starters and have exceptional traction on snow and ice. I highly reccommend the Vue as a low cost vehicle to buy and to operate.

This car saved my family's lives....we put 100,000 on the car in less than a year, traveling almost 200-300 miles a day....we never had a repair except brake pads and tires....we were hit head on by a big ford 150 pickup at 45 miles an hour, , and the airbags deployed perfectly...no injuries, and the car still drove! It was considered a total, but the crash showed us the true safety of this vehicle.

Owned a 1999 Taurus wagon w 3.0 litre push rod motor and at 60 mi/hr it was turning 2,000 rpm.The Saturn with the 3.5 liter OHC (Honda motor) does 75 mi./hr. at 2,000 rpm. Quite the efficiency difference. Drove across the country Cali. to Maryland non-stop Xmas 1998 with alternate driver and got 24.7 mi/gal.
Great car

This car has been great, especially for camping trips with my two large dogs and boyfriend. I've had only one minor problem with it. About one year in; the starter was sticking. I took it to the dealership to get it fixed (it was still under warranty) and I haven't had any problems with the car since. It's fun to drive, and feels more like a car than an SUV. The gas mileage is also pretty good for the size of the car. The turning radius is amazing, which helps in small spaces. All in all, I'm super happy with this vehicle. I plan to drive it until the wheels fall off!
Very good car

Purchased car new a year ago. First American car purchase. This is an excellant car. 06 buyers lucked out as Saturn put many upgraded features in it. Almost a completely different car than previous models. Car is easy to drive, quiet inside and fairly comfortable. I am glad I bought it. No problems to date.
