This is my favorite Saab. It is modern, crammed with content, joyously quick, solid, well-thought-out, safe, quick, still under warranty, fun to drive, and did I mention it is quick? The new- Saab dealer seems to want to take very good care of me, but the local used- Saabs-only dealer is a better bargain. I get 21-32 MPG and can rip off 6.6 second dashes to 60 and under 16 seconds to 100. It feels very composed above 125. Despite the good things I've heard about its reliability; I'll probably buy an extended warranty before the 50000 mile factory warranty exires; some of the parts for this car are a bit expensive and I want to keep it for a decade or so.

I bought a used Saab 9-5 SE with 98000 miles on it. It was the car of my dreams. I've never liked a car so much. Until it started leaking oil. Then the oil gasket blew. And the ABS module blew. And the serpentine belt blew. And 2 months later the entire belt tensioner blew, causing the serpentine belt to snap, causing a melt down. The list goes on. In the course of a year, I spent $3000 in repairs. The shameful thing is that I love driving this car so much, I actually considered getting another one. Had to slap myself out of it, because it really is better as a second car you only take for long highway rides. <Sigh> Guess I'm gonna have to find a 12-step program for Saab drivers.

I am a life long Saab owner who purchased a 9-5 after much debate about whether to jump ship to BMW. I have been happy wth the performance and reliability but frankly, it looks like GM is influencing too much. I keep looking back at the car and seeing a chevy, so I am thinking about selling for looks alone. Care runs well and reliable and smooth, although the stereo is no where near as good as my old 92 9000S. Still, my wife just bought the 9-3 SE convertable and we love it! So they are not all bad. Just disappointed in the styling.

This vehicle has provided a range of diversity with regards to comfort, performance, efficiency and practicality. I regularly take road trips with bikes on the roof, or gear in the wagon area along with friends. The car gets me there quickly with it's powerful turbo engine (I do have the 5-speed), in comfort (the ventilated seats are a must in hot weather) and efficiently (frequently 30-32 mpg highway). I highly encourage anyone buying this car who lives in a snow belt to absolutely buy a second set of wheels/tires for the snow. This makes a huge difference. Overall, I could not be happier with thie vehicle. With 75,000 miles on it, there have been no significant repairs.
