I'm the original owner of this well maintained, 1999 Saturn Homecoming Edition SL2.  Clear Title in hand!

In 1999, the Homecoming Edition was produced in a special "Mint Color" with tan leather interior, special off-white gauge faceplates, and black Saturn badges to commemorate the second "Homecoming" visit to the Spring Hill, Tennessee manufacturing facility.

There were only 4,000 of the 1999 Homecoming Edition produced.

This vehicle was rated 24  MPG City - 34 MPG Highway and it still gets a consistent 30 MPG on average.  It has an automatic transmission and a DOHC 1.9L engine.

It still runs great with over 242K miles, but I've bought a new car, and the time has come to let it go.  This is a safe, reliable, and quiet car that still has lots of life left.  This would be a great "new driver" or students car, and it's even up for a long distance trip.

Check out the pictures, and you'll see that I recently had the headliner professionally replaced and the sun visors reupholstered.  A tune up was done this summer, with new spark plugs and wires, and an ERG Valve.  Overall the car is clean looking, but the clearcoat is peeling in a number of spots, mostly on the spoiler.  There a several flaws in the paint and a couple of small rust spots on the hood due to its age.  See the pictures for yourself.

The stock radio has been replaced with a Pioneer Radio/CD player, and it works fine.  Brand new Silver Star Ultra headlights just installed this week!

I'm also throwing in 2 spare matching FireStone/Primewell tires.  Like all older Saturns it uses an extra quart of oil between changes at about 1500 miles.  The battery, brakes, and muffler have all been replaced in the last three years.

If you have any questions just ask.  Local pickup in Springfield, IL.  Airport pickup available.

GM recalling over 40,000 Chevy, Pontiac and Saturn models over fuel pump woes

Mon, 01 Oct 2012

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for a number of General Motors cars and crossovers bought or currently registered in the hot-climate states of Arkansas, Arizona, California, Nevada, Oklahoma and Texas. As many as 40,859 units consisting of the 2007 Chevrolet Equinox, Pontiac Torrent and Saturn Ion and the 2007-2009 Chevrolet Cobalt (shown) and its Pontiac G5 twin are being recalled for potential fuel leaks.
This recall is being issued due to potentially faulty fuel pump components that can crack and cause gasoline to leak from the return or supply ports and possibly cause a fire. NHTSA has not indicated how many fuel leaks or vehicle fires have been reported. As a fix, GM will replace the fuel pump modules on all affected vehicles free of charge. Since Pontiac and Saturn have been shuttered, owners will be able to go to another GM-brand dealership to have their vehicles repaired.
While the list of affected cars and crossovers varies by state and model year, if you own any of these models and live in Arizona, California, Florida, Nevada, Oklahoma or Texas, be sure to check the official notice below for more details.

Both front, outboard lap belt pretensioners are being replaced, and a stop-sale is in effect on unsold models until the problem is repaired. There are no known crashes or injuries, though.

STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM

Fri, 16 Oct 2009

Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.
