1997 SAAB 900 s review from North America
"Fun, comfortable, reliable drive that was a bargin"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Muffler rusted out 77000miles $30 for new one, welded it in myself.
Front rim 75000 $300 previous owner had hit a curb and bent the rim.
General comments?
The car has been over all very reliable. I have been very impressed with power and performance. Acceleration can be slow as well as evident body roll. However, it is very fun to drive. Seats are very comfortable for long trips. Interior is very natural and controls are well placed.
