Reliability is less than stellar. I love my Saab. For the price it is far superior than any other car. Ride is excellent, lots of power, great ergonomics/comfort. I bought a used car w/49K miles, however the turbo blew at 53K (covered under warranty + free towing), the paint is VERY fragile (has gouges in hood from the tow, and keeps getting scratches in parking garage from other drivers resting briefcases on the trunk, top). I am now taking maintenance VERY seriously (there are several other common problems). However, for the safety, performance, and style there is no equal.

This car offers a great balance of ride, handling and accelleration. It has nice qulity feel and look to it both inside and out. So far It has been very reliable.

The 9-5 continues the SAAB tradition of providing an economical, sporty, cavernous luxury car in one package. It is great.
Very Poor Customer Service

I have grave concerns about the vehicle's reliability and Saab Customer service. As soon as we bought it, the car broke down during a move to GA. Trips to the dealership (one over a week) failed to resolve the issue. We still continue to have problems with the car. The Saab Customer Service department was extremely antagonistic, unhelpful, and even untruthful. The car continued to experience many minor deficiencies during this time. To date, all issues are still unresolved, and we have lost faith in the car's reliability, the Saab warranty and customer service department. Knowing what I know now, I never would have bought this vehicle.

I bought this car used about 2 years ago with 88,000 miles on it. (My dad purchased a 2000 9-5 aero a few months earlier and I loved his so much I wanted one). It's a fun car to drive, love the sports drive option, and has good overall handling (except in the snow!) Mechanically...I always feel like I'm replacing something! The turbo has gone once already, air filters, struts, brakes, and the oil needs to be changed constantly or the check engine light comes on. The pixels in the dash computer keep going as well and it always reads 'tail light out' even though it's not. My dad has had similar issues with the dash computer and it is expensive to fix. This is a car I hate to love!
