No rust anywhere! (hood is complete rusted, and as the only bit of exterior metal leads me to think rest of car’s chassis is ready to turn to dust)

I have worked on an SL2 before. They’re garbage.

To each his own, but Saturn is a brand I don’t think I could see myself going to without extreme desperation.

Only GM could make plastic rust :p

Not saying I would buy It, but barring the hood, I don’t think it’s terrible. Before I bought my focus, I thought about a saturn for the sheer fact that the bodies were plastic so they would never visably rust

“No rust”

You mean except for the rust you put on there on purpose.

It’s a GM piece of shit, of course it’s ready to turn to dust...look at the U-body vans.. I swear, from the bottom of the line 3door ventures to the olds silhouettes, by now (in wisconsin) every fucking one is missing the rocker panels.

Terrible? Certainly not. There are much worse vehicles out there. If that was the price range I was looking at, I would probably consider that over most other cars on CL that I’ve seen.

I always wonder though, when it’s apperant that the owner sunk some money on stuff like paint and audio systems, rims etc, and then selling them for about the same amount as a stock model, why is he (or she) selling it? Is the engine about to go? Is the frame gone?

Usually it’s either a problem they can’t diagnose or exactly what you said, frame rust/damage.

The motors in those saturns is not what I would write home about regarding reliability though. My older sister had an SL2, it threw a rod.

What's the deal with the hood? Also, having been raised in Wisconsin, I call bullshit on his claim of "no rust". Unless someone went to the trouble of garaging a freaking Saturn every winter for its whole life, a single Wisconsin winter and its salt will create rust on the underside. BS.
