Used 2007 Saab 9-5 Consumer Reviews
Wagon? yes, but it's a sport's car, too
Could not love driving a car more than this! The manual transmission is fun to drive. The Aero is agile & responsive. While there are cars on the highway that are attractive style-wise, I bought the Aero wagon because I wanted a manual. Not too many manuals out there in cars this size. And not too many wagons.
Fun to Drive
I decided to buy this car (a 2007 w/ 45,000 miles)- over the 2007 Honda Accord & 2007 Toyota Camry -after test driving all three. This car is the best ride of all three - by a long shot. It's the most fun I've ever had driving a vehicle - it has great power - 260 HP w/ turbo- and a smooth, quiet ride. Better ride than my wife's Mercedes- Benz ML 340. Long live SAAB !

Never been more disappointed
It's my 39th new car. I've owned most all types. This car is my biggest disappointment since purchasing GM's & Fords in the 80's. Owned 2 days and the side "memory seat" lower seat wrap around and buttons have broken off the drivers seat and just hanging, parts on order. Low gas mileage for such a tiny tiny engine...if 2.3L were in a Honda it would get 45 MPG, not 18. So with what's happened in day 2 of owning it, I look forward each morning to what will break next. Other cars offer greater value, quality, at lower costs. Don't buy a SAAB!!! Big mistake.
Love the Saab!
Haven't had the car long but it sure is impressive so far. I am so tired of the heavy feeling in many vehicles and I love the way this car combines power with a light feeling. This car doesn't need a long runway. It is difficult to find a vehicle that is fun to drive around town but also is a pleasure as a touring sedan. This car appears to be good at both. I will have a better idea when I take a 1600 mile road trip in a couple of weeks.
Saab Air Gulper
Brisk acceleration and very fun to drive especially on the highway. Spacious midsize sedan that seats four adults comfortably with a huge trunk, sporty design and feel, and thumping sounding stereo system. When the transmission is shifted to the "sport" mode, the fun meter goes up. With the large oversized gripping Pirelli's, the front end steering torque is definitely noticeable.
