Is the 2008 Saab 9-3 2.0T a reliable vehicle?
I am looking to buy a used car. And I was thinking about buying a used 2008 Saab 9-3 2.0T with 1500 miles. Can someone tell me what's bad and good about the Saab 9-3?

All Good nothing bad. Even the 2003 were good but problems could not be diagnosed quickly enough as there was no historical background for those problems, 2003 being the first launch year. Plus you have warranty to cover for atleast 4 years and you can buy extended warranty to cover a longer period if you have any... Read More

I am 21 yrs old and I bought a 2008 Saab 9-3 2.0T in Feb. and I love it! I just did get my 10,000mile service and so far no problems. A few features I dislike is when u do not put your seat belt on right away it will keep beeping at you. It will also warn you a/b your tire pressure and other little things. Also, I... Read More

I really love Saab! I do not own one, but one of my immediate family members owns one and it is a fantastic car. Her model is a 2007 and it is fantastic, so I would imagine that a 2008 would be just as great, if not better. It is a comfortable car to drive and ride in. Great handling, take off acceleration, safety... Read More

Saabs are under-appreciated by many car shoppers, perhaps due to their quirkiness (like the ignition switch located on the center console between the front seats). But they offer good performance and fuel economy in a single package. Historically, reliability is not at Toyota levels, but nobody ever accused Toyotas of... Read More

Other Choices:
In base form, the 2008 Saab 9-3 SportCombi is easy to compare with the Audi A4 Avant 2.0T, which also comes with a torquey turbocharged four-cylinder engine. Next to the 9-3, the A4 has an especially upscale interior, and though starker, the Saab’s cabin feels pleasantly different than other cars in its class. The Saab’s Swedish rival, the Volvo V50, is a smaller model that also comes with available all-wheel drive in top T5 trim and is especially agile and fun to drive. But the V50 is considerably smaller than the SportCombi. The BMW 3 Series Sport Wagon isn’t offered in the sedan’s top, 300-horsepower 335 trim—just as a 328i or 328xi (all-wheel-drive) model. Outside of the much pricier Audi S4 Avant, the very rapid Aero or Turbo X SportCombi might just be the fastest wagon its size.
