The 2000 Saturn SC1: before you buy
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2000 Saturn SC1 for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Thinking about the 2000 Saturn SC1? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.
Before you sign for the SC1
Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Owners filed 8 complaints with NHTSA, most often about air bags, electrical system and latches/locks/linkages; have those parts checked.
Reading the spec sheet
No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.
Best uses
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
Space, size and seats
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with.
Drive it on your own roads
Rent the SC1 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.
Choosing the right one
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
Money matters
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
