1999 Saturn SL review from North America
"Excellent mode of transportation"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing so far. When I bought it, it had a salvage title because the person I bought it from had just repaired it from a recent accident.
General comments?
Not the greatest with comfort... I have a bad back and it isn't feeling very well after a 30 mile drive to/from work.
Excellent gas mileage!! With gas prices these days, this car is a MUST! I am a truck guy, but decided to buy this car because of the ever increasing fuel prices. The car had a 10+ gallon fuel tank, it takes me $30 to fill it, and it easily gives me 40 miles to the gallon!!
Very quick right out of the gears.
