2007 Saab 9-3 2.0T 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6M)

I purchased a new Saab 9-3 recently and all I can say is, why didn't I buy one of these along time ago. This car is everything it says it is and more. I drive 35 miles to and from work each day. At 75 mph, I get 34 mpg at 80 mph I get 32 mpg. I tried to do 70 mph but just couldn't, it was just too much fun going faster. The turbo acceleration is a blast. Going from 60 to 100 only takes about 5 seconds. As you can tell, I'm in love with this car. Just drive one.

Owner's praise for Saab 93 2007 sport 4 door

The Saab 93 is a great car. Turbo with powerful 4 cylinder mated to 6 speed stick, lightweight and nimble (not a 4000 lb behemoth but more like a '62 Alfa Romeo),built close to the ground so you can stack skis and lumber on the roof, or stash 30 8 ft 2 X 4s in the trunk. Practical! Even has a CD player so you can drive cross country with Mahler's symphonies in the queue. Mechanical issues? I had to replace two wheel sensors once, no effect on the drive, minor stuff. But after 16 years, that is not bad (compare my VW Passats, who lived in the shop from birth to death). I have been driving stick since 1958, from Buicks to VW's, much time under the hood, but the Saab is really the best. If you can find one (93 will do, or one of their handsome convertibles), get it! Sad that Saab stopped building cars (shame on GM) but they can still build you a fighter jet or a submarine or even a high energy physics particle detector.

2007 Saab 9-3 Aero 4dr Sedan (2.8L 6cyl Turbo 6M)

Looked at the A4, S60R and TL before buying the Aero. Traded an older A4 Avant (2000). Turbo is a little flat in top gear passing, but I believe that's somewhat common in 6sp with turbo motors. Lag off the line is there, but minimal, then picks up much quicker than the new A4 turbos (even the Saab 2.0T seemed to have better acceleration than the A4 2.0T, though the Audi is smoother). Excellent on the highway, fun on backroads (excellent powerband from around 1800rpm on), with an easier clutch than on the Audis (both old and new). The Aero's spoiler is VERY low to the ground. Seats are comfortable, but interior controls/surfaces feel very cheap.

I have owned this car for about a year. It has been all that was advertised by the dealer . .plus good milage (about 27 both C & HW combined). The only minor points I have are the headlights are set too low. On high beam, however, they are perfect. The stearing is also a bit " squirrelly", so you have to pay attention to your driving. Now, if only it had a little more kick!

After owning a 2001 Saab 9-3, there were questions about getting a new Saab. The 2001 was solid, but dated. The car was designed in the early 1990s. The new 9-3 handles better, has many more features, better layout, more room and is far better quality. The doors, fenders and quarter panels have minimal gaps. The fit and finish is superior to the domestics or japanese. I compared a Honda Accord, Toyota Camry and the 9-3. When comparably equipped, the Saab was cheaper. The Saab rode better and there wasn't a gazillion on the road. 31-34 MPG during mostly highway driving. GM should quit playing sticker games. It scares too many potential buyers away and affects published resale values. Its a good value when priced right.
