2005 SAAB 9-2X Aero review from North America
"It is a great year round sports car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
You have to keep the engine above 2000 RPM's for usable power, which takes a bit of getting used to.
General comments?
The 9-2X is quick and very fun to drive, and it also cruises nice on the highway.
I haven't had it long enough to really run it, or see how good the reliability is, but it is basically a Subaru underneath, so I feel it will hold up really well.
I always liked the WRX, and then they released this version of it in SAAB form, and I couldn't resist. I picked it up for under $20,000 too, which helped my decision. Thanks GM for the discount!!
