Saab does it better!

Date of Review:  Mar 13, 2001
The Bottom Line: Need a car that gets through thick and thin??? Do yourself a favour and by a Saab!
Review: I have always liked to drive a Saab and believe me I have tried numerous of cars but always returned back to this Scandinavian brand.
I have to say I haven't had the chance to try it when it's summer but my main goal was indeed to get a good...

Go Buy This Car

Date of Review:  Feb 19, 2001
The Bottom Line: Use your brain and not your loins and at least test drive one of these things. You could be amazed.
Review: OK, a solid year looking to buy a reasonably priced, near luxury sports sedan/wagon. EVERYTHING test driven, some good even great handling cars. But nothing that said gotta have it, especially pushing a sticker of $40K in some cases.

I'm glad I switched

Date of Review:  Oct 17, 2001
The Bottom Line: Styling, quality, driving experience, high tech goodies. Dealer experience and continues to be exceptional.
Review: I found myself cruising VW dealers for a replacement vehicle after my Golf ticked over 250,000km. The A/C was shot and summer was approaching, and I could feel the clutch beginning to slip, and the exhaust was making a racket...and a bunch of other...

My New 9-3

Date of Review:  May 29, 2001
The Bottom Line: This car is not for everyone, but makes a great choice for an everyday" ride with a converitble top.
Review: I was lucky enough to recieve a hefty chunk of change as a signing bonus from my new job, and decided to treat myself to something I've always wanted- a convertible. I didn't want just any car with the top lopped off, however; I wanted something...

It's No Bargain

Date of Review:  Feb 3, 2001
The Bottom Line: This would be a great car for about $28,000. Its few shortcomings are magnified by the high price. It's no BMW.
Review: A friend once said, as he was trying to repair an old skateboard, ?the only thing worse than not having a screwdriver is having something that is almost like a screwdriver.? Stupid at first, but with a little thought I began to realize the depth of...

Solid, comfortable and fast

Date of Review:  Jan 25, 2003
The Bottom Line: If you want a comfortable, reliable, powerful car that is versatile and good on gas, this is a great car, especially if you like something that everybody else isn't driving.
Review: I have driven my 9-3 for over 55,000 miles in the 18 months I've owned it and the car still amazes me.

COMFORT - I'm 6'5" with a muscular build and still have 3" above my head with the sunroof closed - something I couldn't find in any...

I don't regret buying it, but...

Date of Review:  May 27, 2003
The Bottom Line: Great car for me, but not for everyone. And that's part of the appeal.
Review: A lot of what I would say has already been said, but I know that in trying to justify purchases of my own, I like to read what others have to say - almost thirsting for someone else's opinion to justify my opinion or scare me away. This is perhaps...

A Fun Ride

Date of Review:  Jul 31, 2001
The Bottom Line: A fun ride that is certainly competitive with other cars in its class. At the very least, take it for a test drive and see what you think.
Review: I recently leased a 2001 Saab 9-3 SE 4 door sedan (By way of background, Saab has two model lines, the 9-3 and the 9-5. The 9-3 is available in the S series as well as the SE series, with the SE being the more luxurious of the two (though when I...

Buy certified pre-owned...GREAT car!!! I LOVE it!

Date of Review:  Jun 22, 2005
The Bottom Line: A great car, but if you don't want to spend over 45K for a new model, consider certified pre-owned (low miles, original and extended warranty for a great price!)
Review: Coming from a family where my parents owned Triumphs, VW Karmen ghias, volvos, peugeots, and saabs (cars that are kinda out of the ordinary)...I felt right at home purchasing my 02 Saab 9-3 convertible. I always thought of myself as Benz person, but...

Best car I have owned

Date of Review:  Mar 23, 2002
The Bottom Line: I recommend this car 100%. If you need a dependable car with a huge trunk/hatch look no further. FUN. RELIABLE. SPORTY. PERSONALITY. FAST
Review: I have owned my Laser Red SAAB 9-3 SE now for one year and 15,000. This car is as solid and fun to drive as the day I bought it. I was in the market for a new car and test drove everything under the sun. No other car gave as much performance an...
