Thanks, guys for the advice..it's truly taken into consideration!
I'll keep looking too, for a different car.
I'll test drive the Saturn and come back with a report

PS: Maritime Storm: I value what you've posted and for pete's sake..I'm certainly not savvy as you when it comes to transaxles, slushboxes, etc!
This is the thing you see, being a single woman and going to look for cars can place me in a vunerable position. I'm not a dummy by all means and I do have some, good knowledge on vehicles however, this is where I wish I'd someone knowledgeable to come with me!
