In two years, it's probably an $8000 or $9000 car...
 
I'd want to see around $15K, if it were me...

I was perusing this site earlier and it was useful to get an idea of prices - so thanks to everyone who posted.
 
I ended up getting a new 2008 9-3 Sporticombi with the 2.0t, automatic w/ cold weather package for $20.5K (original MSRP = $31.8K, for what that's worth). Wasn't considering a new car, but it was hard to pass up. So far, so good - just hope saab and gm will be in business long enough to honor the warranty...

Just bought a used '08 2.0 Sportcombi w/
Premium
Cold Weather
Sunroof
 
for $19k.
 
It had 14750 miles. The dealer originally had it listed for 24,900 on the sticker, the internet price was 22,900. (either way, I think he was way too high)
I settled on 19k after then told me they absolutely couldn't go any lower (although it was pretty easy to get them to 19k)
 
Since I already bought it, please keep the 'you paid way too much' comments to a minimum.

The only way you paid too much is if you tried to trade or sell in a few years. If you keep it looking great and well maintained and drive it 6-7 years it will still be worth 3-5k. Since you only paid 19k for it you only lost a maximum of about 15k. A little over 2k per year in depreciation. You are way ahead of the 30-40k buyers no matter what the brand. Almost everything drops to 5k after 7 years including mercedes,bmw,audi. don't go buy advertised prices-check sold prices.

Hey, buckeyegirl2...
 
Are you still in Ohio? If so, what part of the state?

Just wondering... That's not a bad asking price.. You might have a little bargaining room.. There is an independent in Cincinnati that has two '07 sedans... both priced cheaper, but maybe less options..
 
The '06 and '07 models seem to be plentiful..

I just bought a 2008 9-3 turbo X with 14 miles. The car was loaded with Nav, cold weather package, touring package and some really nice floor mats thrown in by the dealer. The car had a sticker of $47,500 and I paid $33,700 out the door. Price included all fees, etc.
At first I was really worried and skeptical because the price was so low but after driving it and falling in love with it I am now pretty happy with the deal!!
