1999 Saturn SL: Nice Affordable Car

Sun, 9 Sep 2007 20:36:05 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author wasserfly152 - I bought my Saturn with 40,000 miles almost five years ago. My 1988 Honda Accord had some problems and I wanted something that was cheap to insure, safe and a rice burner. This car was an A+ in all three categories. The check engine light went on at...

Thu, 12 Jul 2007 22:25:37 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author griff98610 - The folks at Saturn have done a great job at building obsolescence into these cars. My daughter bought her SL1 new in 1999. Great car, at first. But stuff starts happening at about 40,000 miles. Like two of the window motors went out. Then the right...

1999 Saturn SL: Disappointing

Mon, 26 Jun 2006 14:09:46 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author lafamily - This car was a disappointment from the beginning. I have spent a fortune on repairs. Its electrical system has been plagued with problems as well as the cooling system. It handles very poorly for its size and has very poor acceleration...

Tue, 14 Mar 2006 20:13:35 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Bobx000 - I purchased my 1999 Saturn SL2 as a certified used car from a Saturn Dealer. I am very happy with the quality of this car. It has a lot of innovative design features. One of these features is a drain plug for the transmission fluid. Also has a screw on...

Thu, 13 Oct 2005 01:40:51 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author enfarine - You saw the commercials years ago where someone was getting cheered by Saturn employees for buying her first new car. Well, I had that experience in February 1999. I bought my first new car and it was a Saturn SL1 5-speed. I had been researching...

1999 Saturn SL: My Dream Car (With Bonus Dream Purchase Experience)

Fri, 13 May 2005 20:44:55 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Darkmistress - I fell in love with the Saturn when the very first commercials came out. You know, all those "what is that you’re driving" commercials. Ok, maybe I bought the advertising, but it seems to be holding up. And I had totally forgotten all those...

1999 Saturn SL: Very Dependable Car

Thu, 10 Feb 2005 14:25:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author lyndsie05 - I bought this car because I knew I needed to buy a new one soon and Saturn was the first car to come to mind. I talked to the salesperson about how dependable a Saturn is and I can't believe how right he was. Gas mileage is great, the many features are...

1999 Saturn SL: Happy until this week

Fri, 29 Oct 2004 15:17:38 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author flgeri57 - We loved Saturns so much that we have 3 in the family. We have 2 1999 SL1's and 1 1998 SL2, so I think we are pretty good judges of this vehicle. We've owned the vehicles for 3 years. We loved everything about them until we ran across the first...

1999 Saturn SL: Great fun with a 5 speed!

Mon, 4 Oct 2004 20:30:39 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author cruhmm - I'd have to say that the single best thing about this car is that it's fun to drive around crazy in it. Using the 5-Speed manual transmission you can output a lot of power from the DOHC engine in the first couple of gears and beat cars in the 250hp...

1999 Saturn SL: Great Car!

Sun, 29 Aug 2004 02:37:11 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author soulfanphilly - It's sleek, yet conservative. It is a good design that doesn't draw attention, yet is appealing. Very few blind spots, it's small where it counts, but big where it counts too. Overall, it's...

1999 Saturn SL: SL2 - a practical, solid car

Mon, 29 Mar 2004 11:10:36 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author foo_bar - I will start by saying that the Saturn SL2 is an economy car -- it's not the sportiest car by a long shot, but it's built very well and will last you under proper maintenance. The 1.9 L engine won't win many drag races, but it will give you ample...

1999 Saturn SL: Peppy, economical, reliable car

Tue, 27 Jan 2004 13:46:34 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dmroffers - The car had a bad engine mount when I bought it. This caused it to jerk at part throttle in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gears. My mechanic replaced it with a redesigned OEM mount, and the jerking has subsided. I think that the transmission mounting needs...

1999 Saturn SL: A good, reliable buy for those seeking transportation

Fri, 24 Jan 2003 19:06:52 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author ramico - There's no question that we're a Saturn family. In my immediate family alone we own four of them: a 95 SL2, a 97 SC2, a 99 SL1, and a 00 SL2. We didn't get them for their looks though (well... maybe the SC2); we were simply looking for reliable cars...

1999 Saturn SL: Certified Used SL1

Thu, 31 Oct 2002 19:29:50 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author antimonysarah - I bought a '99 Saturn SL1 because I was looking for a 4-door subcompact or compact car with good mileage, good reliability ratings, good handling, fold-down back seats, and under 9K (this was in summer '02). Since I was going to immediately drive the...

1999 Saturn SL: SL-2: Lots of fun and reliability in a small package

Sat, 1 Jun 2002 09:18:06 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author toast822 - Why the Saturn SL-2?

Back in 1999 my wife had quit her job to go back to school, and, for the first time since we were married, we definitely needed a car. But it had to be cheap, since we were down to my measly salary, and she...

1999 Saturn SL: 1999 Saturn SL2 is a great car

Mon, 22 Apr 2002 16:04:36 GMT
rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author awopinions - Our 1999 Saturn SL2 has been an extremely reliable car for my four-member family. The car has been in Saturn's repair shop only twice since we purchased it in 1999. Once in 1999 it was in because of a hairline-crack on the engine head that was leaking...

1999 Saturn SL: Pocket Rocket in disguise

Wed, 27 Mar 2002 15:16:33 GMT
rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author trooperjeep - Our first new car ever was a 1999 Saturn SL1 which we leased because the payments were almost the same AND they threw in free service and oil changes for 3 years!

All I ever had to do was put in gas.

Sweet!

The SL1 is a light...

1999 Saturn SL: Over 10 years of wanting one ... the SATURN SL2 meets expectations!

Mon, 18 Feb 2002 18:21:14 GMT
rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author elainehn - If you've read my other car reviews, you'll be prepared for a review that is probably more 'girly' than some ... but that may be of interest to the moms and the non-motor-heads among Epinion's readers. I do realize that I offer more insight into my...

1999 Saturn SL: Saturn Scores Big

Tue, 1 Jan 2002 15:50:04 GMT
rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author prestonicko - The 1999 Saturn SL2 is without a doubt a very good bargain for the kind of car you are getting. This car is reasonably priced above all else and has something that I as a young person like; it is a family car but could carry off being a sporty car at...

1999 Saturn SL: A Girl's Car - But in a Good Way

Fri, 10 Aug 2001 16:54:13 GMT
rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author cloverk - I'll be writing the following review from the viewpoint of a girl - partly because I am a girl - and partly because I don't know many guys that would consider buying a Saturn. Not that they shouldn't. A Saturn is a great car for someone who wants a...

1999 Saturn SL: America's Ho-Hum Feel-Good Car

Wed, 2 May 2001 00:44:20 GMT
rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author mrkstvns - Saturn must hire an awful lot of very good advertising people. We've all seen the commercials about happy fuzzy warm Saturn drivers who love their cars. We get sucked into the promise of easy, friendly buying experiences. It all sounds like automotive...

1999 Saturn SL: Don't Believe the Hype (on Saturn's Service)

Sat, 14 Apr 2001 11:37:10 GMT
rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author musichound - Hubby and I both needed new cars so we shopped around, read our Consumer Reports, and wound up at our local Saturn Dealer (Saturn of Rt. 33, 3830 Easton Nazareth Hwy,Easton, PA 18045 (610) 746-1800 just as an FYI). We purchased 2, yes 2, brand new 1999...
