Just bought an 2002 SL2

Burgendy in color, manual transmission, sunroof, spoiler, power everything cept seats - 22,000 on the odometer. The car belonged to an older lady who passed away - it was garage kept and hardly driven, so its in "good" condition. There are a few blimished here and there and a cigarette burn in the passenger seat.

This is my first Saturn and so far I am really impressed - the ride is really decent and the gas milage is excellent. I never had an stick before, so I am in the process of teaching myself how to drive one.

I payed $6,000 in cash for this car.

I work fulltime as a student assistant with the State of CA and attend CSUS where I have one year left in the persuit of a BS in Criminal Justice.

I really didn't want to buy a small car, but with gas where it is now, it seemed like the "practical" thing to do. So here I am, introducing myself!

***EDIT***

I forgot to mention that my previous car was a 1989 Buick Regal GS, with the 3.1lt v6 - I had a CAI, headers and exhaust on it - the car died and remains sitting at the folks place.

hope you enjoy it
