Pros: Excellent value for the price Cons: S-Series need just a little more get-up-and-go The Bottom Line: Although it's now an "old" model, it is a good representative of the Saturn S-series in general: a good, reliable, safe car for a reasonable price.
I owned a 1996 Saturn SL2 until March of 2001, when I decided it was time for a change. I was driving 35 miles one way to work in heavy stop-and-go traffic...in a MANUAL transmission car. DEFINITELY time for a change. I investigated a few other vehicles...

Looking for a car that I could put a gang of miles on traveling back and forth to work, I found Saturn to offer the most for the buck back in 1995.

Pros: Wonderful Ride, Great Gas Mileage, Sporty Look! Cons: Front Bumper can become disengaged rather easily The Bottom Line: YES YES YES! Excellent Value, Excellent Gas Mileage and Excellent service after the sale.
My Saturn is a 2000, but it is brand new to me! I have wanted to own a Saturn since I first saw them when they opened the plant in my native state of Tennessee. When we moved to Canada I needed a new car because my current Ford would not pass the...

Pros: Customer service, reliability, safety, fuel economy Cons: The four-cylinder leaves a bit to be desired; very sensitive keyless entry system
I always thought Saturn owners were crazy. If you got them talking about their cars, they would seem to stare off into space and go on and on about their Saturns. I, typically, thought, "Shut up, man. It's just a car." The loyalty of those...

Several months after finding out we were going to have a baby, my husband and I realized that it was time to start looking at four door cars. We both drove small, two-door hatchbacks and pictured the difficulties we would have getting a baby in and out...

Pros: Reliable, low-cost, friendly car company Cons: no rain guards on doors
I bought my first car two weeks after I finished graduate school. I had literally been trying to save for a down payment for years. I had always relied upon carpooling with my mother or friends to get places. I also had my heart set on a Honda. Yes,...

Pros: Very Safe, Looks Nice, Good Price Cons: 3 seats in back, but only fits 2 children. The Bottom Line: If we weren't planning on the 3rd child, we wouldn't have needed to upgrade to a larger vehicle and would have kept this car for sure.
We leased the Saturn 2000 SL2 in March of 2000. We did a lot of research about safety and this car met the highest standards of what we were looking for.
We had a warranty for the entire time we had the car, and it was always serviced when...

You want prestige? Luxury? Want to turn heads? Don't buy a Saturn.

Pros: great gas mileage, friendly helpful company employees Cons: lack of Saturn locations in midwestern Wisconsin
I drove a Plymouth Sundance for nearly 10 years and when I finally decided I needed to bid it farewell, I started researching Saturn. One of my friends had bought one and had no complaints about the company so I simply followed her lead. Since I...

Pros: Great safety features. Cons: The 5 speed doesn't seem to get the gas mileage they say it will.
I own Saturn SL1 and I love it! I had test drove one about a year before I bought this one and fell in love with them. If you are a little on the short side (and I am!) this car fits great! The seatbelt does not come across my face like it does in...
