This Year's Model Updates:

New last year, the Vue gets only minor changes for 2003. V6 models are now available with front-wheel drive, while a new options package bundles together heated leather seats and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. A new optional audio system includes a subwoofer, 180-watt amplifier and six door-mounted speakers.

Pros:
  • Large doors ease entry/exit, extensive choice of drivetrains, spacious cabin, excellent crash test scores.
Cons:
  • Bland interior, low-grade plastics, noisy four-cylinder, vague steering.

    17000 miles and happier now than when I first brought it home. No real issues. The Vue handles nice, is comfortable, reasonably priced, plenty of cargo room and very reliable so far. In summary.. I have NO complaints.

  • Best of all worlds - 2003 Saturn VUE
    By -

    Ive only had this car for about 7 weeks, but so far so good. This car hit the mark on size,comfort, features, performance,safety and price. Plus you cannot beat the Saturn sales experience! This is a station wagon with out the frump factor! The 5 spd is a blast to drive and is very smooth. Ive owned mostly manuals in my nearly 25 years of driving. The four is very strong and smooth and loves to rev! I have not noticed any performance degrade when loaded with passengers and cargo. The mileage is good as well upper 20s in mixed driving. Idles so smooth and quite I have to check the tach at stop signs and lights to be certain I have not stalled.

  • Best medium SUV made...period... - 2003 Saturn VUE

    Everything abot this vehicle has been stellar. Best of all, with V6 and AWD I still get 25 mpg hwy! Reliability, comfort, handling, economy, everything excellent. Also, one of the roomiest of its class. Dealing with the dealership and service department is not the normal take a number and wait process. will probably never go back to the tradition way of buying cars and service. Other manufacturers need to take a lesson from Saturn!!!

    I was excited to have this beauty for a while and since I have had it, it still is exciting. The drive is smooth and and has more than enough power, the seats are very comfortable, it seats five great and the cargo area is huge.

    The overall design makes it convenient for the driver to be able to turn to see nearby traffic while at the same time theres plenty of space "leg room" in the vehicle for passengers. In other words, you get a ton of space in a not so bulky car.

  • Love My VUE! - 2003 Saturn VUE
    By -

    I have been driving my VUE for over 5 years. It has been commuting, shopping, playing taxi, camping, and climbing mountians in Hawaii and now in Europe (were military) and we have never had any reason to complain because we take care of our VUE. In Europe there are no Saturn dealers and we have had zero problems with taking it to the Opal dealer to get it serviced when the struts had to be replaced - it is over 5 years old now some wear is expected. The traction control has saved my can on the wet autobahn a couple of times. The gas mileage is great - about 21 - 24 mpg at 80 mph. I will be buying a hybrid VUE whenever this one is about ten years old. Until then see you on the Zugspitz!

  • Great SUV! - 2003 Saturn VUE
    By -

    I really like the roomy interior - its long enough with the seats down to carry a 2x4 and tall enough to haul a 27" TV. The height is just perfect - its easy to slide right in. I have not had any problems in the first 2800 miles.

  • my point of Vue - 2003 Saturn VUE
    By -

    Great experience purchasing this SUV was a pleasure. I used my GM points and my GM loyalty bucks and the rebate. I did my homework on the net then did leg work. The Vue won. I love the polymer sides, no parking lot dings or scratches. Its zippy and cute, I love the bright red! Love the compass and the temp on the mirror, and the sun roof was a must. Great gas mileage. Seats fold down for my dogs.

    This is a great vehicle. I talked to several SUV owners before buying this one, and all Saturn VUE owners were enthusiastic about their vehicles. Other SUV owners were not nearly so positive. Ive taken it on several long (600+ mile) drives and it rides great. Gas mileage is better than most, too.
