1997 Saturn SC -2 review from North America
"Cheap insurance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Sunroof motor gears striped at 73000 miles.
Battery went dead at about 72000 miles, but it was a six year old battery.
General comments?
The sunroof not working I can deal with and the firm suspension too.
The car is rated at 124 horsepower, but it feels like more.
Looks and performs like a sports car.
Very reliable car never had any problems with the car that couldn't live with.
