What Owners are Saying About the 2002 Saab 9-3
"Loved my Saab"
"My Saab was my first car. It had a lost of very specific and weird issues that were hard to fix and my mechanic often couldn't fix it (thank god for google). Many people aren't used to seeing Saabs so they are hard fix and it is hard to fix problems if there is an issue. But my car served me well for 100,000 miles. It was fast and comfortable. I wish they still made Saab's"
"OMGosh!!!!"
"Truthfully, besides the fact that SAAB went out of business, if you ever have a technical problem or an electrical problem you can go to foreign car mechanic or a BMW mechanic. Besides that.. this is the best car I have ever had! It's super fast and it feels like your cruising so be very careful with speeding. You have to be a great driver the handle this baby. I hit the curves so smoothly at 70. The brakes are fantastic! When it comes to maintenance parts new or even used are good. With all of my cars, even this one, I go to Lacey's Used Auto Parts in Newark, NJ. I choose them over Auto Zone, Advanced Auto Parts, and sometimes even my mechanic. I watch them collect the parts and clean them to prepare them for my car. Anyway, I love this car!!"
"For 20 plus years it still rocks"
"Car drives like it's 5 years old. Only drawback is the oil cooler. When getting an oil change you have to change the fluid because of the sludge that accumulates. Beyond this everything still works although the speakers will crack because of age. Turbo will send the car over 100 without hesitation. Have fun and be careful driving this slick automobile."
