I was looking at them. I couldn't really find what I wanted, '07 ION 3 w/2.4 auto and leather without a sunroof. And I couldn't order because they are stopping production in March. So now I'm leaning more towards the Hyundai Elantra. Seems comparable in size and price to me with the Elantra having a better interior, more standard features and better gas mileage. But that's just my personal opinion. Happy hunting!
I just test drove an ION 3 Quad Coupe last night, 5 Speed, good car! Since they stopped production on them for this year, I'm trying to get my hands on a black one, but with the sport package, so that it looks similar to the ION Red Line. I'll keep you posted.
I am going to look at a 2004 ION tomorrow. Has anyone had problems with their 2004 ION?

2007 Saturn ION 2 Sedan 2.2L Auto w\ pref pkg 2. MSRP was $15,825.
Used $1,000 down payment coupon from GMAC lease pull-ahead promotion - which covered the 6% sales tax. Dealer fees were $270. Financed $16,056.
GMAC was offering 0% for 72 months on ION's. Payment is $223 per month for 72 months. Zero cash down. Zero interest.
When test driving the 2007 ION, found it to be very quiet and smooth riding, noticeably quieter and smoother than our 2007 Toyota Corolla LE automatic, especially when accelerating from a stop. Handling was excellent. The ION's headroom and legroom was impressive for this class of vehicle.
Dealership tried to sell us a bunch of extra profit add-ons, like overpriced warranties and that window etching scam thing, etc... We just had to keep saying, "No thank you, we are not interested in that." But so much for Saturn's "no hassle, no haggle" policy, huh?
Hello - I have a 2004 Saturn Ion 2 Sedan. The lease will be up in August of 2008 (I had a 48 month/12,000 mile per year SmartLease). I am at 47,500 miles now in March, and so I will be over my 48,000 mile limit by the time I turn it in. I was interested in leasing another Saturn (perhaps upgrading to a Saturn Vue). I was just wondering if anyone knew how Saturn was at writing off those extra miles instead of charging for them if I was to lease another Saturn? Besides this, the car is in immaculate condition. I know I would obviously be paying a little bit more a month for the larger vehicle, but I'm fine with this. I just wanted to know if I would get hit with a ton of over milage charges if I stuck with them for my next car as opposed to going to a different dealer. Thanks!

Do you think $8990 is good for it? Thanks!
My daughter has a 2003 model, it has been a good car thus far.
Good Luck
Thanks
