Never considered a SAAB before I saw the special offer they had on my car ('04 linear) in the dealership. Traded in my 02 TDI Golf (worst car ever owned). So far the SAAB has been flawless on the first 1000 miles! Strog engine, high milage and so much fun to drive!!! Equal or better than my 99 A4 quattro with sport package. Still need to get used to the ignition switch location.

The 2004 Saab 9-3 Linear is a powerful, fun to drive, practical sports car. It's also a pretty good deal when you factor in the rebates available. This car handles great and has every safety device standard (ABS, front/side/head airbags, traction control, electronic stability program, electronic brake assist, and active head restraints).

One of the better cars for the money

I traded a 2000 Volvo S40 for this Saab. My first choice was the all new S40, but noticed a little more turbo lag than I'd have liked, and they are not yet available with manual shift. For the price difference with options the 9-3 is a no brainer coupled with the deals and incentives offered. It's got to be one of the best values out there for this price segment. Nice looking, fun to drive car with lots of safety features.

Previously owned 99 9-3. The 04 is a completely different car. Higher levels of refinement from the exterior look to the interior materials and design. This 9-3 has grown up.
