Great car, extremely reliable, what I found from my own experience, is that Turbo models seem to be less reliable than a naturally aspirated engines. I still get descent fuel economy on it, it averages about 24 mpg between city and highway. Its not a very exciting car to drive vs. turbo, but reliability on this one and low cost of ownership definitely worth looking at. I love my Saab, and highly recommend to anyone thinking of getting one for their kid getting a first driver's license. Its not the car he/she will be able to break speed records, but it is a very good reliable car.
I remember driving this car at the dealers when it was a new model. I didn't find it slow by any means (well, I test drove the manual) as long as you're not looking to win stop light drag races.
