| Pros: What do you like about 2008 Saturn AURA?
The XE V-6 has plenty of power, and pulls flat and true.
The four speed automatic is almost in perceptible in it's operation.
The entire design is modern, elegant, and I do not think it will age well.
The care handles well without a punishing ride, and it is extremely quiet. Cons: How would you improve 2008 Saturn AURA?
Some of the storage bin cover feel cheap to the touch, and the rubbery stuff on the center arm rest could be a bit better. The arm rests on the doors could use a bit better grade of softer plastic, or some type of cloth.
A five or six speed automatic to bump up MPG, which is only fair. 2008 Saturn AURA Review:
I traded in '05 New Jetta after having a lot of electrical gremlins. The Aura is a whole lot more quiet, and the compromise between handling and ride is much better than in any of the three VW products I have owned. The drive train runs very well, and passing power is always plentiful and instantly accessible. I do think the look of the interior is great, and ergonomically equal or superior to anything else on the market. I test drove a new Accord, and the layout of the Aura is far better, and it looks at least as good if not better. While the Accord also had a few budget crunching issues with the interior the Aura has a few more cheap plastic bits. The base stereo in the car is far better than the Accord stereo, and as good as my up market VW system. However, my only complaint about the drive train is the mediocre MPG. It's not terrible, but I think a two more gears in the transmission would go far to fix this sin. Obviously, the car looks great. I think better than it's sister Malibu, and definitly a step above the new Accord, and Camry. I would suggest it to anyone looking for a nice mid-sized family sedan. Especially, for someone who is not overly concerned about trips to the gas pump. |

THE CENTER CONSOLE IS VERY CHINTZY- VERY OUT OF CHARACTER WITH MOST OF THE

Improve Interior plastic, fix door of dash change bin, improve V6 mileage. 2008 Saturn AURA Review:
Lots of leg room for tall drivers and rear seat passengers. Many nice features are standard. Very peppy V6, but mileage could be better. 3.5L V6 needs a 6 speed transmission. Very nice ride and comfortable interior. |

I've looked at but not driven the 2008 Aura. The 2007 was the best Saturn car I've ever driven. Cons: How would you improve 2008 Saturn AURA?
The center console in the 2007/2008 Aura looks and feels cheap. Why not put a center console in the AURA (and virtually every other Saturn)like the one in my 2007 Saturn Outlook XE? If Saturn Corp spends $250.00 per car by putting better quality plastic in it, they can turn it into an extra $600 or more on the sticker. 2008 Saturn AURA Review:
I loved my 1999 SL-1. But the plastic dash and center console looked cheap. However, after 62,000 + miles and some 8 years of use, there were no cracks, chips, or discoloration of the plastic in both the interior and the exterior. No nickel dents on the doors or wing panels, either. The plain fact is that I'd rather drive a Saturn sedan to any other sedan made by any car company--if I've got to pay for all my own maintenance and repairs. The automotive press and publications such as Consumer Reports are only now learning what we Saturn owners have known for years: These cars offer great value and first rate reliability!

| Pros: What do you like about 2008 Saturn AURA?
Love sleek exterior, great INFO button on steering wheel,enough compartment spaces, very quiet-road noises blocked out. Cons: How would you improve 2008 Saturn AURA?
the steering wheel well is too low and hits your kneecap when braking. Have lower seat height and sit farther back to avoid this. Getting out of the car seat is uncomfortable due to a high "lip" on each side of front seats. 2008 Saturn AURA Review:
all in all, a pleasing quiet ride. |
