Thinking of buying the Saturn SL?
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the Saturn SL for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Before you buy the Saturn SL, see the figures and the checks worth doing.
Before you sign for the SL
Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.
The figures, translated
The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.
Who it is for
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
Space and size
As a compact car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight.
Try before you buy
Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Rent the SL for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. A week with the SL answers more than any brochure.
Picking a year and a trim
Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
What it costs to run
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Send a request
Send a request to rent the model you are thinking of buying.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a Saturn SL from us first.
Ask us about the Saturn SL
Tell us your budget and when you want to buy; we look for a Saturn SL for you and reply within one business day.
Buying the Saturn SL
Does CarmaCars sell the Saturn SL?
Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.
Can I rent a Saturn SL before I buy one?
Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.
Where do the figures come from?
Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
