Pros: safety, comfortable car Cons: engine a little loud The Bottom Line: This car is small, but reliable and comfortable. It gets good gas mileage and lives up to the Saturn reputation.
I love my Saturn SC2. It is the perfect car for me, a young single female. It is just the right size for me. The first time I sat in it, it felt like the car was designed for me. The seat was comfortable and all the controls were easily accessible and...

Pros: No-haggle purchasing; courteous, exceptional service; reasonable price. Cons: Mediocre styling and performance. The Bottom Line: If you want a decent car that is a good value and which you can purchase without the usual car dealership games, this might be one to consider.
NOTE: This review is written with respect to the 2001 model year of the Saturn SC2.
I bought my Saturn SC2 in September of 2000. My trusty Honda CRX caught on fire after racking up 230,000+ miles on the odometer, and so it was time to buy a...

Pros: Terrific, sporty car at a decent price Cons: Blind spot created by third door
I have owned my silver Saturn SC2 for a year now, and I have only one complaint: the damn ads! Everyone asks me, "Hey! Howdja trick out the door?", as if they were the first clever person to quote the now infamous ad. That aside, I could...

Pros: Inexpensive, handles well, good gas mileage. Cons: Flawless. The Bottom Line: A great first car for anyone, the Saturn SC1 coupe is a car for anyone who wants a sporty, reliable car at a reasonable price.
I work as a journalist. As such, I travel a lot when not in classes or whittling away my free time on this site. I looked for a car that was inexpensive yet sporty, had good gas mileage, and had a good name reputation. This severely limited my options,...

Pros: Third door allows greater access, sporty look and feel, lots of room. Cons: Cup holder placement too near arm rest, minor Con. The Bottom Line: Probably the best car on the market for the price, sporty and fun.
For an overall review on how I feel about Saturn see the epinion about my Saturn SL. This review is about the hubby's car and why he wanted the SC1 instead of the SL like me. We are both sold on Saturn and that is why we both got new cars. I wanted...

Pros: Looks great, 3rd door, big trunk, Saturn reliability Cons: it's a sports car, fer goodness sake!
Well, first off, I have not bought one of these vehicles. But I have taken a few test drives in them, and instantly fell in love with them. I have owned and driven a few Saturn SL's in the past several years, so that's what I have to compare them to. ...

Pros: Dealership, Price, Style, Performance Cons: Should offer more engine options
My wife and I bought our SC2 after her car was totaled in an accident. We didn't spend much time looking around at other cars. The Saturn dealership was one of the few shops we went to. When we saw the SC2 in the showroom we fell in love with...

Pros: too many to list here Cons: bad car for tall people
I ended my lease of a '97 SC2 and got a new 2000 SC2. They have made several changes in the center controls for the radio and such. There is a dial instead of a slide control for the temperature. The engine has also been changed, I think beginning...

Pros: Not much Cons: Too small, insurance is too high, cheaply made, isn't appealing to the eye
My wife had a Saturn SC about a year ago and I absolutely hated it. I didn't like the looks of it and I really didn't like driving it. Here are the bad points in my epinion:
1. It is entirely too small. The car my wife drove had a...

Pros: style, reliability, gas mileage Cons: runners stay wet
I am an owner of a 2001 3- door coupe. Having owned 4 other brands of cars over the past 20 years, I was hesitant because the body sides moved in when I pushed them and I was worried that this meant that I would be killed in an accident. Was I wrong !...

I just recently acquired my SC2 just a little while ago, but i love it so far. I leased mine with every possible option i could get, spare leather seats and an automatic transmission, and i didn't get those only because I didn't want them. Even with...

Pros: Beautiful, cheap and handles real well Cons: no power
Ever since I bought my first Saturn back in 1994 I have always been impressed with the car and the company. First, when you get to the lot you aren't hasseled as soon as you step out of the car. The reason you aren't hasseled is because they know they...

Pros: unique styling, safety, reliability, gas mileage Cons: lack of power, clunky shifting (automatic) cramped rear seating area
Well, if you only had a brain you would seriously consider buying this car! I've never seen a car company with as clean a driving record as these guys.
I read in a consumer report magazine where they rate cars reliability safety etc. on a...
