1998 Saturn SL SL2 review from North America
"Good Value and safe."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Cooling fan went out, but its winter time here in San Diego and that brings cooler weather so I won't have to replace until summer next year.
General comments?
This car seems well built. Good fuel economy. Nice paint job. Nice interior.
The seats seem a little small but they are comfortable. The car has ample power for merging onto busy freeways. Good handling around corners except for squealing of tires.Car has good visibility . Excellent fit and finish.
Overall I have driven the car all over Southern california and it is great.Since purchasing this car i have driven over 3,000 miles and have enjoyed the car. Much better than my previous Honda civic wagon and sedan.
