#3246 of 3306 air conditioning on 9-3? by seiker0808 Aug 21, 2008 (11:40 am)
OK< so I just bought the 9-3 linear sedan 2005 from CarMax and I think I got a good deal..as I said in the other post I love how it looks and drives and It was only just barely $16,000 and has 23,000 miles...and I have 5 days to return it if I don't like it. The only issue so far is the air conditioning doesn't seem very cold at all. But before I go griping to CarMax I'd like to know if this is normal...

Replying to: waterdr (Aug 14, 2008 6:21 pm) the cabin air filter is located on the passenger side firewall under the hood. remove the plastic cover at the very bottom of the windshile at right, lift up the plastic piece and you'll see it.

Replying to: avatar1 (Aug 16, 2008 5:58 am) I hope this reply isn't too late. I have a 2005 9-3, essentially the same design as the current 9-3. The ride is fairly quiet; I have no problem having a cell phone conversation while driving. The car also handles well in snow here in northern NJ, though I have never had it in a snow drift. I have never felt nervous while drving it through a snow storm. The 9-5 is based on an older design than the 9-3, so in my humble opinion, the 9-3 technology is more up to date. However, the 9-5 design is probably the last before the complete GM take over, so it is more of a pure Saab design. You need to weigh which means more to you.   Good luck!

#3252 of 3306 Just bought a 2008 saab 9-3 automatic by kowari Sep 03, 2008 (8:36 am)
Hi everyone. First time poster here. I bought a 2008 black 9-3 4dr sedan last weekend which was being shipped from New England to New York. It arrived today damaged - the dealer claims they don't know if it was damaged while on the other dealer's lot or while en route. They are now trying to contact other dealers to get another car. My question is, if they can't find one, is it within my rights to demand that they obtain one either with options I didn't pay for or a car in a different exterior/interior color? Can I demand that they eat whatever additional costs to get a car with options I didn't want or pay for? I haven't given them the full down payment yet but signed an agreement and put some cash down. Thanks in advance for any advice. Replies to this message: waterdr (Sep 18, 2008 7:52 pm)

Replying to: kowari (Sep 03, 2008 8:36 am) The only right you have is to not buy the car. Unless you have a signed-contract, you have no legal leverage. I would think, however, that the dealer would work with you to get you something acceptible.
