1989 SAAB 9000 CD review from North America
"Fast, comfortable, sexy haha"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I got the care the sun roof did not work, the brakes were rebuilt but the mechanic (licensed) used the wrong fluid (I believe the pump may be damaged, the brakes are better now that I changed the fluid but not up to par for being all new) the fan for the climat control was replaced by the same mechanic but for some reason there is a wire run off of it to the battery (I don't know which post he used as it was off when I got the car) as well as the compressor pump for the air conditioning needs to be rebuilt.
General comments?
I really love the car, It was a gift from one of the chefs I work with, very spunky car, my Father has an 88 fire bird that can't keep up the the Saab.
