Safety and a Sports car

2000 Saab 9-3 SE HO Turbo 4dr Hatchback

To start off, the saab is my first car. I got it a year ago during my senior year of highschool, and ever since then I have love every bit of it. My only problem with it is that it is a little worn. There are some airflow issues and the radiator was leaking but these were not manufacturing flaws but probably from the former owner(s). I wish I could have drove it when it was new but sadly I can't. Oh and these cars are pretty strong, because yesterday I got rear ended pretty hard by a honda accord and came out with just a dent and scratches on the rear bumper... can't say much for the honda though. So if your teenager wants a car you should go for this one, you get safety and a sports car.

Replaced the following items: 47K miles--serpentine belt broke, timing chain replaced. 56K miles--turbo replaced 57K miles--DI electronics replaced 58K miles--balance chain, water pump and head gasket changed With the 60,000 suggested maintenance, the repair costs exceed $6,000. Saab corporate thought this was acceptable.

This care is great! I'd very much like to upgrade to a Viggen when my lease is up on this car. For those of you who like Saab's - this is the car for you.
TIRES AND RIMS BAD NEWS- GREAT ENGINE

I'm about to turn in my 2000 9-3 convertible after a 3 year lease. Over the course of 32,000 miles, I have been through 7 tires and two rims. I'm driving on a rim now that appears to be bent as I have a slow leak in the tire, but at this point, screw up, it's to the gas station every saturday for air until I turn it in. Blow outs at the slightest pot hole. I hate to say it but, it's the Saab of old. I wont be getting another despite the BEST turbo engine I've ever driven. It's a shame, if it wasnt for the friggin wheels and tires ( $250 per tire to replace), they would have a repeat customer
Saab best car ever

My Saab 9-3 convertible is 18 years and runs perfectly (with regular maintenance). I cannot give it up, regardless of all the upgrades it does not have.
