Have it for a rental.

The Good: Rides pretty smooth for such a small car, quiet, really takes longer corners pretty well if you stay in them.

A very basic car but wouldn't be bad for one person on longer road trips. Pretty quiet and not difficult to drive and corners where you don't have to go left to right or right to left quickly it handles ok for that

The Bad: WEIRD STYLING, poor poor acceleration, did i say weird styling?, lotsa body roll in sharp hard turns, i feel sorry for anyone that has to ride in the back seat.

All the gauges are in the middle? What the heck? This thing doesn't accelerate, the dashboard is weird, the cruise control is weird, everything is weird about it, and the back seat has like NOOOOOOOO room. i wouldn't put anyone else except a young child in the back seat.

Verdict: Sucky car, needs more power, and the styling just plain sucks.

Was it a stick?

I hear saturn's redline is a pretty quick car.

The redline is a sprinter but in its category its easily eclipsed by well the eclipse for one ha ha, as well as cars like the si, gti, cobalt ss, srt-4 (albeit out of production), and although they all have different niche's the redline just seems to fall short in any category to at least one of the other competitors.
