Replying to: 9zz (Jun 10, 2005 10:47 am) I agree with kyfdx. I have found, with the people I talk to who are looking or want to buy a Subaru, that most are willing to consider the Saab as an similar, better designed, and cheaper alternative to the WRX. Those who don't consider it, often have their mind set on a Subaru already, especially the more powerful Sti. People don't know about the Saab because Saab isn't marketing it as well, especially when compared to the marketing campaign of their new SUV. And what is 5% extra for insurance when you already have to pay as much as you do; 20-50 bucks every 6 months? That should be almost negligible in terms of your decision, especially when you throw in 2 yrs free maintenance. But if you don't plan on keeping the car for a while, greater than 5 years, buying it without putting down a chunk of dough will not be worth you time, no matter what car you buy.

Replying to: 9zz (Jun 10, 2005 10:47 am) I'm not sure how the insurance on the Aero works but I checked with my provider (Progressive) for the Linear and it's funny how for a 2005 9-2X Linear will cost 90 bucks LESS compared to our 2002 GrandAM 2.2L SE Sedan!   I was totally amazed. These are really nice little cars. Much better than anything offered at these discounted price ranges.
#6 of 6 we have a 9-2x by thenebean Oct 19, 2006 (9:07 am)
and bought it because it was much cheaper for what it was compared to a similar used WRX wagon (we bought a 2005 in march of this year with 13k miles on it for 16999)   not bad for a car with an msrp of $32k!   we love it - not everyone on the road has one, even though it is essentially a subaru underneath.   -thene
