[QUOTE="StephanieLovesSam, post: 1572961, member: 367946"] So basically I'm researching cars that I would want as my first. I'm pretty much going to stick with the older Saturn models. I love the cars, and I work at a dealership so getting any needed work done won't be an issue. My boss has told me that if I can find a car, he will get it running for me and he will look it over to make sure it's safe for me to buy. I have a few questions about these cars. Feel free to answer any of them. I'm just looking for some good info. My choices I have narrowed down to are, either A) an early 90's SC2, or B) Later 90's SL2. I'm footing the bill for myself on this so I have narrowed my choices down to these 2. 1. What kind of gas mileage do the SC2's get. I work 25 miles from home. So it's 50 miles round trip. 2. Generally speaking, how are they on insurance rates, with a new driver? I'm planning on paying for my own insurance. 3. What could I expect as far as reliability? I need something that is going to start for me in the -20 degree weather we get here sometimes. I live in Minnesota. Roads can be slick and slippery. And it gets cold. 4. Would you reccomend them to a new driver? 5. How are they for leg room? I had a knee surgery in October of 07, and I don't want my legs to be crunched up a ton. Right now I'm learning on my mom's Impala. I know I won't find a car with that much leg room. But I don't need my legs so squished that my right leg locks up on me. That would be bad. 6. Out of the options I have given, A or B, which would you see as a better fit for a new driver. [/QUOTE]
