Worst car I have ever owned, car looks great but the build quality is total crap. I have driven cars fit for the scrap yard that drives better than my Saab.
If you want a car with the reliability of a Saab and the build quality of a Saab, why not consider a Trabant.
Because surely that is an insult to Trabant :)
You did buy it with 80K miles on it.
How do you know it wasn't abused?
I've had nothing but excellent experience with Saab products.
I love my 9-3.
The car you got is one in the million, you are damn lucky to get this lemon. I wish my two saab were like yours, so that I could take the car dealer and Saab to the cleaner.
