DO NOT LET THE MILES FOOL YOU - read the description! THIS CAR IS READY TO DRIVE! CURRENTLY REGISTERED, INSURED, INSPECTED - just register it and drive! I have bought a new car, so my Saturn wagon must go to make room! This is a 1997 Saturn SW2 (SW = station wagon), DOHC 5-speed manual, 31 mpg, 202k hwy miles, ice cold A/C, power locks, manual windows, cruise control. Gold w/very clean tan cloth interior. Over the past month, I've invested a LOT of money in repairs to the car, as I drive 100 miles per day to and from work. Over $6,000 invested, own it for much less.
