I purchased a 9-2X Aero the week before Christmas from Delaware Saab in Wilmington,DE. Since I knew exactly what I wanted and the price I was willing to pay, the negotiatiations and transaction were painless and simple. December is a great time of year to purchase a car. The week before Christmas was an even better time. The showroom was empty when I walked in and they were very willing to negotiate. If you are driving a Volkswagen, like I was, Saab was offering to deduct $1500 off the list price.
  When all was said and done I ended up paying $26,500 for a loaded $32,000 9-2X Aero. The folks at Delaware Saab were a pleasure to do business with. Timing is everything!

"sabaru"? by skim1114

A dealer in Bangor Maine, Quirk Auto, is selling the 9.2 with 5,000 cash back. Anyone else heard of this?
 
It's odd that there isn't much about this car on this forum. I have heard that Saab can't move these because they are so much like Subaru's, so Saab folks don't want them and Subaru folks don't either becasue it's a Saab. Is this true?
 
I on the other hand, am willing to take a Saab for the price break. I like the Subaru Impreza but there is no optino for a moon roof...silly, but I'm to used to it not to have one.
 
Can anyone give me an idea of why I would or would not take this car over a subaru?
 
Also, any advise on cost to get a Saab fixed versus a subaru?

Yes, GM is offering a $5000 cash incentive or 0% financing on the 9-2x right now. In addition, a Saab dealer informed me that they have an $800 holdback, so most Boston area Saab dealers are offering $6000 off sticker price. If you are a GM Supplier, then you will have additional leverage.
 
Check the other 9-2x forums on edmunds for more discussion regarding Subaru vs Saab.
 
Saab and Subaru repair costs will depend on where you have your car serviced. It's probably best to call your local dealers to get their labor rates and part costs prior to having any service performed. Trust me, you can save a bit of $$ by shopping around.

Do you know if this $1500 rebate for VW owners is still valid?
 
Thanks

How does $18.8k + TTL sound for a linear with a moonroof?

18.8 souunds alright- I was quoted 18,500 for same model, but it was a demo with about 5k on the clock.

Saw online a dealer in NH that has these two deals on new 9 2x's
 
- Linear-manual-list 24,285 sale 17,399
 
- Arc manual- list 30,195 sale 22,663
 
Seems pretty good, anyone see better? I might pull the trigger if I can find a comparable deal.

It wasn't a rebate. It was more of an incentive tied to the list price.I'm not sure if it's still in effect. Ask the dealer's salesperson. However,I've seen better and newer offers being rolled out like $5000 off list.

Hi folks. I've been reading with interest the comments and experiences of this particular forum. I have a couple of questions regarding the 9-2X. First, I'm angling for a manual, base model at around $17,400. My local dealer balked, but a dealer about 90 miles from my home said he could "get close." My concern is depreciation. As I told my local dealer, "yeah, the $5000 is great, but you're still not selling the car for $17,900. So, what's it worth when I drive it off the lot?" I've also discovered that Saab has a huge inventory of 9-2X's.
 
My goal is to get the car +TTL for $18k. Would I be a fool to turn down such an offer for the base model? Or, am I being too much of a scrooge?

Oh well, nevermind. The closest anyone will come to $18K is 18,635 (sales tax is about 540)-- so $18,100 is the lowest they will go.
