  • Saab is the BEST car I’ve ever owned.

    Engineering miracle in my opinion. Trouble-free, great looking, and FAST with the turbo. All of the technology you want and need. Heated seats, OnStar, power moonroof. Maintenance is not expensive from what I’ve learned through the many years of owning one.

  • Until my recent safety inspection!

    My 9 3 2.0t has a sub frame under the engine that is rusting through. Yes we have salt on the roads of Maine. But this is a well maintained car with numerous car washes each winter and throughout the year. Worse case the engine can fall out and or the front suspension fail. My previous saab 900 was 15 years old in Maine and absolutely solid. Buyer beware! Inspect very closely!

  • not good

    This car had not been well maintained and the dealership didn't even know that the car was pulling to the right, as they'd never been in it or drove it. Saabs are really good cars and this one was just not maintained.

  • I love my Saab

    2010 Saab convertible is the fourth Saab I've owned. Unfortunately it will be my last. I've had the car 8 years and it still is great fun to drive. Fast, handles well, and incredibly comfortable. Thought about trading it in for a new car, but would have to spend $75,000 to have this much fun driving. Only have 60k and hope to drive it for another 60k! Repairs have been minimal, replaced the original brakes at 58k!

  • Nicest car I?ve owned.

    Only have had the car a few months but very fast. Very sleek looking. Have gotten many compliments. The sway bar makes a lot of noise though no matter how many times it?s serviced. But it?s the nicest car we?ve ever owned. Very high tech too.

  • Sleek, fun, and sporty

    I bought my car with approximately 30,000 miles on it. Since then, the only work I've had to do is routine maintenance and tire changes. It gets great gas mileage, and the paddle shifters are a lot of fun. I use sport mode for highway driving, which gives the car good pickup. Very happy overall.

  • FUNCAR

    This is a great little convertible. Has the feel of a top of the line sports car - no not a 911, more like a Lexus SC with a little more room.!
