#595 of 653 Re: Need advice on purchase decision for 2006 9-3 Convertible [drmoore24] by kyfdx HOST Jul 12, 2009 (6:44 am)
Replying to: drmoore24 (Jul 07, 2009 8:36 pm) Just as a data point.. local dealer nearby is advertising an '07 convertible with 26Kmiles for $23,900...   So.. wouldn't be surprised if you can get to that $20K number... plus tax, etc...
#596 of 653 2009 Saab 9-3 pricing by mavrick83 Jul 18, 2009 (11:59 am)
Hi,   I was just at a dealers and was looking at the following car: Link to Sticker Information   the price on the sticker is $35475, it has Auto/ColdPackage/MoonRoof. I was able to get him down to $30000 with 0.0%, but if i chose to not take the 0% and get regular financing then the price is $27500.   i said i would have to think about it (i didn't plan on buying it today anyways) and left. he wanted a $100 refundable deposit but i didn't put any and i think i can still go back and get the same price/car.   what do you guys think? good deal?   another question, he said the dealership was losing money, why would he sell a car if he was "losing" money? what does that exactly mean?   Thanks in advance.

Replying to: mavrick83 (Jul 18, 2009 11:59 am) Don't worry about the dealer losing money.. If he is, then it's only because that is all he can get for the car, and it's better to cut his losses.. That's a doubtful scenario, but so much the better for you...   My local dealer is selling service loaner/demos that have similar stickers for $10K off MSRP.. That's about $2K less than your brand-new example... so, I'd say you are in the right ballpark..   Keep in mind.... even at $8K off MSRP, a Saab 9-3 will still depreciate fairly quickly... I see 2007 models with miles in the 20s, with asking prices of $17K-$18K.. So, if you fall out of love quickly, the Saab might not be for you..   regards, kyfdx
#598 of 653 09 9-3 Combi Touring - what's a good price ? by ummagumma Jul 25, 2009 (6:04 pm)
With current deals, what's a good price to negotiate on a 09 9-3 Combi, with auto as an only option ? I think the MSRP is around $36K, but I know the Saabs are often heavily discounted.
#599 of 653 Buy Extended Warranty or Not? by yuyund Aug 02, 2009 (1:04 pm)
2005 Saab 9-3 2.0T Sedan. 48, 000 miles. The factory warranty will expire in the end of Aug 2009.   The dealer is offering bumper to bumper extended warranty:   $1,680 for 2 year or 24,000 miles, plus $200 deductible each visit, or $2,125 for 3 years or 36000 miles, +$200 deductible each visit.   I have owned this car for less than 1 year and have been to dealership 4-5 times for little mechanical or electronic problems here and there, including window won't come up, check engine light was on, lights burn out, door rattling noise, radio problem, AC vent broken, taillight losening, antanna crack, taillight falling, etc.   I like the driving experience this SAAB has brought to me. But the little problems are annoying. Has anybody experienced any more severe/expensive problems for a 7-8 years old 9-3? Should I buy the extended warranty? Or should I just sell this car and get a more reliable car?   Any thought will be welcomed! Thanks. Replies to this message: jayrider (Aug 05, 2009 8:33 am)

A large newspaper reporter is looking to speak to consumers who went from owning a luxury car (BMW, Lexus, Mercedes-Benz, etc.) to a premium non-luxury vehicle recently. If you purchased the vehicle using the Cash for Clunkers program, please let me know as well. Please send your daytime phone number and the vehicle you own to ctalatiedmunds.com by Wednesday, August 5.

Replying to: yuyund (Aug 02, 2009 1:04 pm) Find out what the exclusions are on the policy and see if the problems you've had are covered.I bet the problems you listed aren't covered or can be fixed for less than $200. Then factor in the $200 deductable. Have your car checked by a reliable independent import mechanic and see if he recommends an extended warranty. Figure 5 visits for work in 3 years. Add the 1k to the $2150 for 3150 which you now have to spend on service and repairs before you break even.
#602 of 653 Sabb 9-3 $17100 by keitho8 Aug 21, 2009 (2:16 pm)
Hi carman, Hi kyfdx, Need some advice please. I've been looking at a CPO 2006 Silver Saab 9-3 with 35144 miles on it. It has sunroof and premium audio package. The dealer's advertised price is $16995 + tax, fees, and registration. I'm trying to get the price down. He's saying he can't go down lower than $17100 all in, out the door price. Is this a good deal? Replies to this message: pas914 (Aug 21, 2009 6:30 pm) keitho8 (Aug 21, 2009 6:44 pm) kyfdx (Aug 22, 2009 7:50 am)

Replying to: keitho8 (Aug 21, 2009 2:16 pm) That's a horrible deal for an '06 with 30k+ miles .. do some searching around and look at 2007/2008 models with less miles -- most will be in the same price range.   Best of luck ..

Replying to: pas914 (Aug 21, 2009 6:30 pm) I have looked around and there seems to be only a few CPO Saabs here in Miami. (35144 miles on the car) I forgot to mention this car has a sunroof and the premium audio package? Edmunds values the car at $15244 plus tax, fees etc His price is $17100 including tax and fees with the CPO warranty. What would you say is a good price for this car? Your help is much appreciated.
