Saturn of Westbrook in Maine is continuing to offer new car buyers the best prices on new Saturn cars as well as low finance rates.  For the month of June, Saturn car buyers have the opportunity to purchase a 2009 Astra at just $16,990. Or, new car buyers can get 0% APR for 60 months.

The Saturn Astra is described by PopularMechanics.com as ‘sophisticated and proven’.  The Astra line-up consists of a 5 door or 3 door hatchback, both built with a 1.8-liter GM Ecotec 4-cylinder engine.  The Astra boasts an estimated 24 mpg in the city and 32 mpg on the highway.

The compact car boasts big advancements in technology, with features like a new feature called ‘neutral idle’.  When the car comes to a stop with the brake pedal depressed for two seconds, the transmission goes into neutral, disconnecting the torque converter from the engine to save fuel.  Lift off the brake for a second, and the transmission goes back into first gear.

The Saturn Astra is well equipped and comes with standard OnStar and a host of safety features like ABS, traction control, electronic stability control and plenty of airbags.  Drivers will really appreciate the tilt and telescope steering column and the rain-sensing windshield wipers.

Saturn of Westbrook in Maine is offering the reduced price tag and low finance rate for a limited time only.  Car shoppers have until the end of June to take advantage of savings.
