I am a proud owner of a '97 SL2.
Having seen Saturn's lineup, I am seriously not impressed.
The worse of them all is the Ion.
Moving the dash to the center, the gas cap to the right (without the locking feature) has been the straw that broke the back of a poor camel.
I am not sure what my next car will be.
I bought a Saturn for reliability. It's reliable, although it could be much more reliable in certain areas where the company will continue to refuse a product recall, but that's besides the point.
Owning the same car for 9 years either makes me cheap or cautious about my next car.
Currently, I am saving for something good. I just don't like what I see with Saturn.
