The 2wd, 4-cyl model we are leasing is basically a station wagon on stilts. This is for hauling groceries and kids, not off-roading, which is fine, because that's what most folks use their SUV's for anyway. Before this, we had the V-6 L300, and the VUE feels underpowered in comparison, but it's an SUV that gets good gas milage. The reviewer commented on the cheapness of the interior, but that was the 2002 model. I think the brushed aluminum look in the 2006 model is very nice. The armrests on the front bucket seats are really the only plastic bits that seem cheap to me. For some reason, we have the woodgrain from the v-6 model on one of the doorhandles in the rear.

I bought my 2006 Vue Redline new and thought is was a solid vehicle. Now with nearly 30k miles, I've had a new transmission, fuel pump, various gaskets, left front strut mount replaced. Now the right front strut mount is making a rattle. It got terrible gas mileage since day one. (16 city, 18-20 hwy). On the bright side, when they replaced all the above parts, my gas mileage has improved. I'm now getting 20.6 city and 26+ on the highway. That's fine, however, I seem to spend a lot of commuting time back and forth to the dealership. Thanks goodness it's still under the B to B 3/36 warranty.

I ordered a black Saturn VUE Redline in November of 2005. Once it came off the line and delivered to the dealership, I took delivery (12/22/05). This is my second Saturn and I am beyond pleased with the craftsmanship, durability and fuel efficiency that it offers. Handles well in the snow. As always, great jopb Saturn!
Very Nice SUV

We are first time Saturn owners. The car is still brand new and has been flawless so far. We really like the dent-resistant panels and this is what convinced us to buy our first Saturn. The Honda engine is also a big plus. It is very nimble and quick and the mileage is good. We like it a lot.

Good $20k crossover. Base models feel floaty on the freeway, and handling does not inspire confidence. Upgrading to the Redline solves those problems, along with giving a better look and interior. The Honda v6 in these is great, and move this vehicle along nicely. Don't spend the money for the AWD version unless you have to.
