2001 Saturn SL SL1 review from North America
"Great value, great service, good car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
As a second time Saturn owner, my 2001 SL1 has not had any mechanical problems at this time. I am still with in the break in period, and it was delivered to me in flawless condition by my retailer.
General comments?
This is the second Saturn I have leased and I find it to be a good value to own. Saturn is currently offering Zero due at lease signing for all SL1 models leaving customers only responsible for taxes and the first months payment (around $800-1400).
After looking around, most car companies are asking for ludicrous amounts of money due at lease signing. My previous 1998 Saturn served me well, and my 2001 is much improved in terms of quietness, refinement, and value. Give it a look, you might be surprised.
