1999 SAAB 9-5 SE review from North America
"Buyer beware!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?

Ignition Coil Pack
Throttle Body
A Gasket

General comments?
In 2 years, I have taken this car into the dealership 8 times for repairs.
During the 2 years that I have had this car, I have only put 23,000 miles on the car.
The interior and the exterior of this car is gorgeous; it just goes to show you that you can't judge a book by its cover.
