2008 Saturn ASTRA Pros and Cons at TrueDelta: Owner Pros and Cons by ****woodyjeepn

Exterior styling

The 3 door XR is Very Good looking with the factory 18" wheels.

Handling

This car handles the twisty mountain roads very well. Very good steering feedback and very little body roll.

Fuel economy

I am averaging 25mpg with mostly city driving and playing with the car. I took one long trip on the freeway and averaged 30mpg for that trip. I expect the overall average to go up as the engine breaks in and I start driving normal (not Playing).

Dealer practices

Saturn of Riverside is very courteous and takes care of the customers.

Materials & workmanship

The fit and finish seems very solid.

Materials & workmanship

I had a few small paint problems under the clear coat but the dealer is taking care of that.

Interior styling

Cup holder position and center arm rest are hard to get use to but when you drive it hard you don't need either.
