30+ mpg, smooth ride, plenty of power, great visibility, loaded with features, zero repairs over 1 year ownsership. Tons of room to haul anything both in car and on top. We drive this car on 17 hr trips to Michigan - seats very comfortable. Don't think a better wagon for the money exists on the market.
Perfect for a tall person

I am 6'6" and the Saab fits me like a glove. I've had the car 3 months now and it's still a joy every time I drive it. The last tank of gas I got 30.5 MPG with a little bit of spirited driving (~80% HWY). The 6 speed manual lets you cruise at highway speeds without the turbo (or loss in fuel economy).

We drove the car to Gatlinburg TN from our home near Washington, DC. The car drove flawlessly, nary a squeak nor a rattle. The four-cylinder engine was economical, yet peppy and and provided six-cylinder power. I found the dash ergonomics excellent, the seats were comfortable and the built-in XM Radio nice on the long drive. There was no torque steer from this front-wheel drive automobile. On-Star provided peace of mind. This car is a good value in today's near-luxury market.
Excellent Car

There isn't another wagon on the market with the Saab 9-3's combination of size, comfort, performance, economy, safety and value. I also do not understand why the automotive press continually under rates Saab vehicles. Nothing from Audi, Subaru, VW, Toyota, Honda, Acura compares - look at the specs - the 9-3 has more cargo capacity than anything within $15K of the price - assuming you want to drive a car and not a truck or truck like vehicle. Reliability has been excellent - have owned two 9-3's - gave older one to my son.
Not cheap to maintain but Sooo worth it.

After a few trouble free years the ECU died. Cost a lot to repair. Electronics are touchy. None of that matters out on the highway; Its becomes a comfortable confident beast that eats up the miles. Its a special car to drive, as are all SAABs.
