2004 Saturn ION 3 Quad Coupe review from North America
"The Saturn ION is an odd, yet nifty little car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A piece of cosmetic molding was warped.
General comments?
This car's rear access doors are really helpful when loading big boxes in the back seat.
The car handles and accelerates well, but from a stop, there are times that the CVT can cause acceleration to be a little sluggish.
The center instrument panel is very easy to read.
