Replying to: cargal2 (Sep 09, 2004 2:22 pm) Thanks a lot!!! I took your advice and "ran" from the purchase of the used Saab. Sharing your experience convinced me. Will check out the Mazda and the new 9-2x. You were a lot help! Thanks again.

9-2X ? I am still thinking a WRX makes more sense. If I were you, I would buy a Certified Saab (it is worth). One thing to keep in mind: Once you own a Saab, it is quiet difficult to get out from it unless your car has a lot problems...People who test drive a Saab usually buy one...I can't get out from it. The driving experience is quiet good and unique (not racing, just enjoy driving the car). I want to sit in my car all the time.

#16 of 653 loking to purchase a SAAB 93 convert. within the next few days.... by jenreb1 Sep 24, 2004 (7:21 am)
Hello,   I am looking to purchase a used saab 9 3 convert. a 1999 or 2000, I have driven a couple and one I heard noises in the front end (no thanks!) and the other they were literally asking me to GIVE them my trade-in (laughed and walked out)...   I am going again today to look at another 1999 saab with 57,000 miles on it and all the options I would like - anything I should keep an eye out for ? They have it priced in the 13,000 range which I don't think is unreasonable, but my trade in (according to NADA.com)is worth 11,000, even if they gave me 10,000 or 9500 I would talk but so far they have come up with 8000 ... any ideas or help would be appreaciated !   Thanks, Jenn Replies to this message: stefan_belgium (Sep 26, 2004 12:40 pm)

Replying to: jenreb1 (Sep 24, 2004 7:21 am) Make sure the car was maintained properly with the right kind of oil, that's important for the longevity of the motor as well as the turbo. Check to see if the car doesn't smoke when accelerating, a sign the turbo is on its way out. Check to for any clunking noise when shifting in/out of reverse or 1st gear: it could be a bad motor mount (they are expensive to replace). If you get a 9-3, make sure you use a high quality full synthetic oil such as Mobil 1 and have the spark plugs replaced at 20K at most Saabs have a patented knock detection through spark plugs, only the right specs NGK spark plugs gapped correctly need to be used (check the owner manual for more info)

Replying to: insureus (Oct 11, 2004 1:52 pm) The deal was a new car. It was not a pleasant transaction which was closed at the end of September. I do think you can get a simlar or better deal, even the manager and the salesman said they couldn't do it better than that. BTW, the salesman wasn't happy at all, and I don't think he would like his name posted. Good Luck.
