Yeah I would probably be driving a versa today if I found that I fit well, I found the seat didn't go back as far as I would have liked... I'm surprised its out of your price range though, based on the quote I got from nissan I'm only saving about 30 bucks a month by going with the astra. Although I drove the versa hatchback not sure if there is a price difference.
I'm going to go and test drive both again. The day I drove the astra I had driven 4 other cars I did not like so it may have seemed a lot better than it really is. So I'll test each again I guess. My only real concern with the saturn is resale. Otherwise I think I like it more than the civic as I was in the market for a hatch to start with, and the fit doesn't really appeal to me. It comes down to the saturn dealership offering me 750 for my old car, two free months of payments (600 bucks), 750 off the price, plus a $500 gas card. Honda gives me absolutely nothing. Plus Saturn called me today to see if there was anything they could do to earn my business.
Regardless it comes down to one more test drive for sure..... See if the astra has enough pep...
