The nice thing about Saturn's is that you can get 200000 miles out of them.

Just change the oil and transmission fluid per the maintenance schedule and
they might just run forever.

I have one with over a 100000 miles on it and have not had to do a brake job
yet and have just replaced two of the tires for the first time.

Yes it is an econo box, but it really excels as a commuter car.  Inexpensive
to buy, maintain, insure and operate.

Ever drive a Saturn? Bumpers are soft rubber filled with polystyrene. 
Body panels are plastic. (Remember commercials? "Dent-resistant panels!" 
means plastic body! LOL) There's the way to make a cheap car!
