Need an advice for Saturn VUE please.

[rocco]

Hello, everyone, I'm new here, just wondering if anyone can help me with an advice for Saturn VUE. Has anyone here been driving this car before? It looks big, stylish with a reasonable price, but is it reliable? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

If you have to get one, you must get it with the 6. Useless without it.

Its a pretty good deal IMO. Are you looking at buying one new?

I remember reading about the Saturn Vue Redline before. Is that out here? If so, then that's an awesome car. I say go for it!

not my cup of tea, I would rather have the new Maxda 3 wagon which is even cheaper and will get the job done just as well. If you really want a small SUV, you can get really good deals on other domestics (Liberty etc.)

enjoy the search

theres someone at work that has a saturn vue.. it looks pretty decent.. I'd get the bumpers painted the same color though.. How much are they running these days? Like 26ish? Thats not bad, and Im thinkin they have those dent resistant doors?

I think this car is in the entry level suv.. so like, honda crv, jeep liberty range?

Overall, it doesnt look bad to me.

not bad vehicle, but yea get it with the AWD heh

I spent two weeks SUV hunting with a friend, the VUE was one of the options -- easily the worst of the bunch, but yes they are inexpensive.

He decided on a Jeep Liberty, tight little SUV.

Thanks everyone, that surely helps me, and I think I just have to rethink about it and hunting around more. Appreciate your helps.

I think the VUE Redline has a Honda 3.5L V6 in it thru GM/Honda deal signed back in the late 90s.

So you now can put "Power by Honda" sticker on your VUE without being rice.

I heard about that rumour, but I haven't been able to confirm it. Do you have any links? I know that the Saturn Ion Redline is a supercharged 2.2L Ecotec (GM engine). I find it odd that they'd put a competitor's engine in a special edition

PS - this is what I heard from another forum:

Talked to a Saturn Rep at the Indy auto show today. He states that Honda needed a diesel for a coming model. They came to GM. GM said ok, what do we get out of it. They get the 3.5L engine. He told me it will be a multi-year deal, and GM can NOT put it in another rig. I hope to test it our this week. I will keep you posted.

If it's on C&D, it's 95% true.
