CONS: Everything is made of plastic and armrest gets in the way when shifting.

REVIEW: I have owned this car for 6 months now and been through two oil changes and over 6,000 miles. So far I have had only one problem. The front blinker on the left side stopped working. Originally I thought it had burned out, but when I checked the lightbulb, everything is in order. I am going to ...

CONS: engine noise, handling, overall refinement

REVIEW: This is the second saturn that I have owned, the other being the sl3. While I thought my first saturn was a fair car that did what it was supposed to, I am far happier with my second saturn experience. The first thing that seperates buying a saturn from buying another brand is the buying ...

CONS: No real anoyances.

REVIEW: Bought this car looking for inexpensive car with good fuel economy. This car does not feel at all like a cheap econo car. Quiet solid chassis as well as a fantastic engine and slick shifting five speed tranny. Got the Sun N Fun package, providing a powerful sound system. (160 Watts) Large trunk ...

CONS: Mechanical problems under 10k

REVIEW: Best fast car your going to buy for under 20k. Actually has LOTS of room in car (fold down seats) for assorted crap (I emptied a whole storage room into it and drove 400 miles). VERY SOLID VERY FAST ON HIGHWAY. Recaros are great in curves, hard acceleration, hard braking, and long distances ( ...

CONS: Fuel economy and acceleration not great

REVIEW: I've had this car for 7 months now and have had no problems with it. I also have a 2000 Sentra SE with the same HP rating. The sentra feels much faster and also gets better fuel economy (31 vs. 24mpg). If I knew the fuel economy would be so bad, I wouldn't have gotten this car. Engine ...

CONS: Not a comfortable car for long road trips

REVIEW: I bought my silver Ion I (all stripped down - no bells & whistles but an automatic transmission, an air conditioner, and a CD player) just before Memorial Day. Since then I've driven it to work every day, from St. Paul, MN to Denver, CO, & around Lake Superior. It is a fantastic car. It has ...

CONS: Steering noises, body creaks while turning, interior is to noisy, mileage not great

REVIEW: Love the looks of this car, surprising get up and go for 4cyl. My main complaints are that this is a noisy car. There is an irritating clunking sound while steering at low speeds that comes from the front and in the steering column. The body creaks at the B-pillar while turning, sounds like an ...

CONS: No Complaints.

REVIEW: This is a great car. I love the appearance of the ION, it does not look like every other car on the road. Saturn is the only car i have owned (I have had a Toyota and a Honda, just to compare) that can go 8200 miles without a oil change and it tells you when to change it, there is no guess work ...

REVIEW: I love this car, I have the 2005 Saturn Ion 2, the dealer was very nice to me. Gave me 5,000 for the trade in with my cougar and another 1,000 just because he liked my family. I do drive on the highway alot, runs very smoothy and it is fast for a 4 cycl. car. I just wish there was more ...
