1999 SAAB 9-5 review from North America
"I wouldn't trade my SAAB for the world!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The A/C blower went out this year.
General comments?
I have nothing but praise for this car. It is nice looking, and I always get comments.
Coming from a Cadillac, this is not the most comfortable car, but it gets the job done.
Great on gas and no down time (except regular maintenance)! I have abused this car since I got it, and it is still ticking just as good as it did when I bought it. It is as reliable as an old faithful dog; always there and always ready. My next car will be a SAAB!
