Consumer Reviews
"Aside from the EV-1, I think Saturn is the best product line GM ever had. I'm sure they sold Saturn for the same reason they scrapped the EV-1. It was too good. My '94 SL-2 was sitting in a thrift store parking lot for months before I convinced my wife to test drive it. We talked them down to $1,650 and drove it home. I was astounded to find that it got 33 mpg. It has a 4cyl. DOHC engine, a 5-speed transmission and low-profile tires. All that and the light frame make it super economical to drive. When it needed a minor repair three years later, the parts were cheap and easy to install. I've been a Toyota fan for years now, but the Saturn compares very favorably."

"I just loved the Saturn I used to have. I bought a 94 Saturn as second hand and I Loved it. Never broke or needed to spend money on. I had it for 5 years, nothing never went wrong. I live in Southern California and we don't have snow in our roads to evaluate the car in snowee condition, but this is a very good car in our climate. We bought a Ford that was 6 years younger than this one, and we always had problem with that one, so this saturn was the main car of the family. A very good car for a student or any one who wants a ride for cheap."

"I bought a '94 Saturn SL2 used in 2003, had nothing but problems with it for the next 5 years. It spun out at will, dry pavement, wet pavement, snow, didn't matter. Living in MI I needed a car that would get me around well, yeah it got me around, spun around. Hope you never have to fix anything on this car, parts are outrageously high. Speedometer quit working because liquid got spilled on the computer that is conveniently placed under the cupholder(ie. that's what that little cut out is by the emergency brake!) Don't hit anything or have anyone hit you, that will cost you. Burned oil like crazy, there is so much more I could say but I don't think there is enough room or time. I will stick with my Toyota's."

"i had bought this car at the start of school. i loved it so much!! it was great with gas and it had pretty good handling fo rthe snow in wisconsin. i had no problems with it untill i went into a ditch with it in michigan. the car looked fine on the outside after it got out of the ditch but it actually had about $4,000 worth of damage done to it. none of the people in the car got hurt. i wish i still had it< it was like my baby."

"I purchased my Saturn last year as a replacement for my trusty 1987 Volvo 740 GLE when gas prices were over $3 per gallon. Adjusting to the smaller size took some time but this lovely car has just grown on me. I love the styling (a cross between the GM EV-1 and Oldsmobile Aurora) and the overall comfort. The dual cam engine is willing and easy on the gas. Aside from minor servicing, this car has been an absolute jewel! The interior is nicely appointed (with the glaring exception of badly needed cup holders), and has worn well for a car of it's age. I would not hesitate to purchase another Saturn based on the experience I've had with this gem. In fact, I would not hesitate to purchase another 1994 SL2! I surely recommend it as a used car purchase."

"I've had this car for almost a year, and its awesome. No problems so far. Interior is a little boxy, but its great. Only thing i dont like about it is that it has no cupholders built in and that the seat belts are automatic."

"I got this as a 1st car on my 16th birthday, and its awesome. I am the second owner. I didnt want anything other than a saturn. I got it with 95k MI. I've never had any problems with it at all, still runs great. Its been very reliable, I've only done regular maintainance for it. I like to drive in it because it looks sporty and just looks cool."
