Great Value
Great vale for your money! If you want a conv that is fun to drive and has great looks this is the car to have. In the two years that I have had the car I have not had one problem.
Onstar problems
I am having a problem with cross talk between the onstar system and the electrical components in the car (that's what the dealer has said). My problem is not severe but a friend has such a severe problem that the car will not start. This problem is surprising since GM has been installing onstar on it's vehicles for many years.

Great Engine / so so suspension
I'm 2.5 years into my 3 year lease. Overall, I think this car is a good value compared to its price range like v6 Accords and Camrys. Very versatile with the hatch. Initial quality was good and I've had no major maintenance issues. The power is great when at full boost in 2nd and 3rd gear. Torque steer, understeer, excessive body lean, and a lack of chassis rigidity hamper this car.
poor build quality
Fun to drive, but a horrible car. Mine has 22,000 miles on it...been towed 3 times, AC broke, ignition problems, creaks and rattles constantly, rotors needed to be replaced twice. Fortunately it's leased and I am getting rid of it in a year. Thank god! Stay away from SAAB. Over priced and sub standard.
A Good Saab Story
What a super vehicle! Saab somehow manages to smoothly combine practicality with performance. I challenge anyone to find another vehicle in the 9-3's price range with comparable performance and design features. Reb Brown at Saab of Thousand Oaks (California) provided us with superior service, as well as a straight-forward deal.
