At the end of my test week I felt that the driving experience was good, but not particularly outstanding compared to others in this league. The Red Line has some great attributes like a strong engine, great handling and attractively understated lines, but it didn't really spell "tuner car" in my books. But for a Saturn, whether viewed as a tuner car or not, it's pretty good.
