These are great , fun cars to own. The marriage between Saab and GM did wonders for the brand. As with any luxury/sport vehicle maintenance is key. These cars require it. Let's face it if you wanted low maintenance get a Kia/Honda/Toyota and blend with the crowd. The fun factor plus the awesome aftermarket support makes owning a Saab fun. I have 180,000 miles on mine, but I change the oil 3000 or less and keep meticulous service records. I spend about 500-1000 a year just to keep mine purring like a kitten!

As a women would, I bought this car for the elegant look it has. However, this car is meant for speeding. Be very careful! Not only with the speed, but with maintenance as well. This is a pricey car to maintain. It costs me $600 just for a 65,000mph check-up and I've only had the car for 2 months. Other than that It's a great car to flaunt around in.

This car is more fun to drive than any car I have driven to date. Find a country road and mash the accelerator...better than a strong cup of coffee. I bought my Saab used and for buck, it has a helluva lot more bang than anything else in that price range.

I bought a this Saab 900 SE after comparing it to an Audi A4 and BMW M3. The Saab is a quality automobile...not the refinement of a BMW, but still heads above your Hondas and Toyotas of the world. Great performance...not off the line, but in true driving situations like passing or merging...drop a gear, hit the accelerator the turbo really accelerates as fast as any car on the street. Friend has a BMW 540, and it out ran him on the highway. Saab has quirks, but i enjoy it greatly...and the hatchback is key. A slick looking, performance car with great storage capacity. Dont buy tihs car if you want to Mod it...not enough options. 98 is a good year...most of the model quirks are out.
