Bought the 2000 Saab used and I have not had any issues or problems. Great driving in the snow, smooth ride and reliable performance.

My Saab Story

By all reason, this should be the perfect alternative to an SUV. Great standard features, lots of room, very comfortable. However, when it comes to ride, quality and reliability this car dropped very quickly to the distinctive "worst car I've ever owned". Car visits the shop very frequently. Dealer acknowledges the problems time and time again, but says they can't isolate them to fix them. It makes me crazy to drive this car. Can't get rid of it. It's value dropped off a clif just like its quality. Do yourself a favor. Don't be fooled by this pretty face. Run as fast as you can away from any urge to purchase a Saab.

Can't wait to give it back!

When I 1st leased this car I thought I'd grow to love it. Now I can't wait to turn it in. Initial build quality was not good. Panels popped up and burnt out bulbs. Handling was fine and the interior was comfy and well laid-out. In the 2 years I've had it I've had mysterious display problems, many more burnt out bulbs and incredibly crappy gas mileage. Exterior styling and finish is not aging well. It makes me glad my lease was only 3 years.It's VERY pokey off the line, with power only at freeway speeds. Extremely annoying.

Enjoyable car, but some sticky points

Some quirks and some warranty-covered reliability issues have not hindered the enjoyment of this car. The car rides very nicely and has enough power for both around town and some speedier highway driving. The interior layout and ergonomics are superb, and generally build quality is good. Two new turbos (one likely not installed perfectly) and a tendency to go through a lot of light bulbs and a couple of batteries have tried our patience at times - as has the lack of dealer parts inventory once or twice. The cargo room is quite good.

A fast sporty car that loves that loves the twisties while carrying two adults, two or three kids and their hockey bags.
