We have been looking for a convertible which I fit into. I am 6'9" and am able to drive and ride comfortably. The car is one of my favorites for styling & perfomance. 2.0 liter is amazing bullet proof and the auto shifts smooth and is fun to drive. If you want a nicely priced used convertible the Saab is 2nd to none.
She keeps on going and going...

I have 75,000 miles on my 2002 Saab and the past 20,000 have been the most exciting... with the stainless steel exhaust system, K&N filter and chip for the engine, my Saab is as fast as anything that I've driven, and she gets 35 mpg almost all of the time. Drop her into second and floor it? Woosh!

Such a neat car. Despite being replaced in 2003 by a newer model, this generation of the 9-3 still turns heads (especially after a wash and wax). Build quality is very good, and the cabin materials are all high quality. Interior controls are a model of Swedish design efficiency. Friends with an Audi and a BMW say the Saab's leather is much better than what they have in their vehicles. Torque steer is obvious under hard acceleration from a stop, but on the highway, this car can fly. Midrange passing power is awesome. Braking is equally good. Reliability has been good - only a few problems which were covered under warranty. This car has never left me stranded.
Disappointed

Purchased this used w/only 32K (one owner vehicle myself being second) since I have had this vehicle I have had new brakes and rotors cut, fuel pump fixed, transmission flushed(that was at 50 k miles). This tops it all, I woke up at 1:30 am saw strange lights coming from my driveway to discover the hazards were flashing. I tried everything and could not shut them off, looked for fuses etc.. had to take it to a SAAB recommended mechanic near my home and his comments the SAAB is the worst car for the money and be prepared to continually pay for repairs... the repair cost was unbelievable. The problem electrical and the computer board....

Excellent responsive tight convertible. Outstanding top and drivetrain. Brisk acceleration and excellent brakes. Completely weather tight with top up. Outstanding handling.
