I purchased my silver Linear 9-5 new in 2002 and still greatly enjoy it. It runs great with original tranny and and A/C system. The black leather interior is of great quality and looks about new. First car I've had for a long time that has not had headliner coming loose. I do keep good care of my cars and do many of the easy DIY service items. Keeping the paint waxed every year and using a car cover held above the roof with SAAB crossbars has kept it looking really good even though it sits outside. There is still a good and friendly Saab repair shop 30 minutes away and that is useful for things like getting the blower replaced as happened this year. Owner of the Saab shop said I should get alot more miles of driving Just changed the spark plugs and ignition cassette again myself which is very easy to do and cost $260 for the readily available parts.

Shopping Volvos at Auto Show, came across Saab, sat in drivers seat and was smitten. Visited dealer, drove 2001 Aero, was thunderstruck. Soon, 02 Arc arrived, w/ 5sp Auto, upgraded suspension, was hooked. Saab had 02 Preview Promo with dealer cash, good price on trade, took the plunge. After 1500 miles, I love this car, excellent dealer service. Drives great. Handling composed; quiet at speed, 26MPG freeway, and goes from 50 to 100mph in a snap! Safe, incl. 3yrs maint. Worry-free.

After 4 yrs with this car, finally turned the lease in to buy a 9-3 convertible @ 0% financing. My long term impression of this car was quite good. In fact, I had intended to buy this car at the end of lease when the 0% deal came up. There was a small leak in the sunroof from a poor seal when I first bought the car, fixed under warranty. After that, only required routine maintance over 61K miles. Most reliable car I have ever owned over 4 years. The 185 hp sometimes made me wince, and strained at times merging onto highway, but putting in sport mode usually solved all problems. Was excellent in the snow with all-season tires. Never bought the snows, although I live in MN
Great Car!!!!!!!!!!!
