Stands out from typical 4-door sedans. Attractive front-end.
Good low-end grunt from the V6. A bit lacking over 80mph.
Excellent fuel economy. I routinely get 29mpg at 65mph and 25mpg at 85mph.
Much smoother ride than my last car, a 2004 Saab 9-3 with 16" rims. The 17" rims on the Saturn give a surprisingly smooth ride. It is not a floaty, Buick-like ride, however. It is very European in feel, like a Passat.
Available heated seats with cloth upholstery = WIN.
