Never having owned a Saab before, I was a little apprehensive at first. That is, until I got behind the wheel! the performance is captivating and the drive is a whole lot quieter than expected (via other reviews on other websites). Fuel economy is fair to well in city driving and terrific on hwy. I love the interior gadgets and ability to connect my iPod. We've had it for over a month now and I continue to be impressed with every aspect of this vehicle. Sound system is terrific and the power moonroof is an absolute MUST!

Great Value @ 60K Miles 9-3 Aero

Just hit 60,000 miles on the 9-3 Aero after 2.5 years - bought new. Mostly highway miles in the desert heat. Just replaced brake pads at 57,000 miles - first time the brakes required any maintenance - be careful - no squealers to alert that your brakes need replacement. Coolant tank replaced twice. Only other problem - unable to start - dealer fixed a switch that had "popped open." Car is worth the money and is fun to drive - quick, comfortable and reliable. Getting 25 mpg on highway and about 22 mpg combined city and highway.

Luxury that Stands Alone

I recently purchased a Saab Linear 9-3 and I can't say enough good things about it. I test drove and Audi A-4, a BMW 3-Series and was on my way to test drive a Lexus IS300 when I decided to stop and test drive a Saab. Needless to say, I didn't even bother going to the Lexus dealership, and bought the Saab the next day. Having just graduated college, I wanted a luxury car that was sporty and well-designed, but I didn't want to be looking at a mirror image every time I was stopped at a stop light. That is exactly what I got and I couldn't be more excited every time I get in the driver's seat.

Overall the Saab 9-3 has delivered as expected with no complaints. The reliability, quality, performance and economy are all where there were advertised to be. I have received as high as 30 mpg on the freeway. I have 15,000 on the car and nothing has failed or needed service. The Saab is just simply fun to drive! All with a very good price on a car that is all it is advertised to be.
