#2128 of 2231 I have $25K for a car ... by saabgirl Apr 05, 2007 (6:39 pm)
I received my May issue of Car & Driver in the mail today, and it includes a comparo of five $25K "funsters." (Mazda Speed3, VW GTI, MINI, Nissan Sentra and WRX -- that's the order C+D ranked them.)   After reading the article, what struck me was the thought that for $25K, a buyer with some wits about him or her self, could pick up a Saab 9-5 of few years and miles for the same amount. My '99 9-5 now has 120K on the odometer and is still going strong. But I've been of the "what if" frame of mind and, after perusing the $25K field, I'm inclined to watch for a 9-5 Aero, 2.3, manual, coming in off lease.   For a solid, safe, economical, fun drive that will serve me well for many years, it's still a hard choice to beat, I think.

Replying to: tourney9000 (Feb 11, 2007 3:28 pm) Its in the harness. 9-5 are famouns for fraying harnesses on the trunk lid. Fray from repeated opening/closing. Replies to this message: crestonave (Apr 06, 2007 6:29 am)
#2130 of 2231 Re: 2003 9-5 - considering purchasing at end of lease [markian] by sweetseet Apr 06, 2007 (6:01 am)
Replying to: markian (Dec 02, 2006 12:17 pm) 9-5 is a good car provided its properly maintained. Parts can be pricey and labor if done through a dealer. However, the dealer is the best place to repair because they know the vehicle and save you money in long run. I had saab and service local and spent more money trying to figure problems out that dealers fixed easy. I will not take her to anyone other than my dealer now. You should only purchase ext wrty through dealer beacuse they must honor even if ext wrty goes out of business. Ext wrty is generally good but depends on what level you buy (gold, silver, etc.)   Good Luck. Replies to this message: ekc (Apr 07, 2007 3:45 am) crestonave (Apr 07, 2007 3:53 am)

Replying to: sweetseet (Apr 06, 2007 5:42 am) I agree. My trunk light lids went out and my backup sensors went nuts and it turned out to be the wiring harness. No problem since dealer replaced.

Replying to: sweetseet (Apr 06, 2007 6:01 am) Do all SAAB dealers offer the same extended warranty, or each dealer has its own favorates? Replies to this message: crestonave (Apr 07, 2007 3:53 am)
#2133 of 2231 Re: 2003 9-5 - extended warranty by crestonave Apr 07, 2007 (3:53 am)
Replying to: ekc (Apr 07, 2007 3:45 am) I don't have an extended warranty on my Saab but my experience is that dealers offer only one extended warranty, which is the one offered by the manufacturer. There can be different levels of coverage available, but all from the manufacturer.   Extended warranties are expensive and in fact it's not impossible that a dealer will make more on selling the extended warranty then he will on selling the actual car.
#2134 of 2231 Saab by jscottk Apr 08, 2007 (3:38 pm)
Taking my new/used Saab in for it's 120K maintenance. I could take it either to my dealer or a very trusted general mechanic, Any opinions? Replies to this message: crestonave (Apr 08, 2007 5:26 pm)
