Are Saabs basically a good car? I just bought a new 2008 Saab 9.3 2.0T. It handles very nicely. Ideas?

Source: Yahoo! Answers
  • Saab's are nice, fuel efficent cars that will last a long time if well taken care of and if you follow the mainteance schedule. They are not the cheapest to maintain if things go wrong but are a lot of fun to drive with good acceleration and good handling as you noted. Due to the efforts of GM and Saab engineers, all...

  • Saabs are good cars, I agree with the first guy. And they will soon become less common because GM is toying with the idea of phasing saab out of it's lineup. You made a good choice and it should last you a long time if you maintain it properly. Saabs are comperable in quality to Volkswagen and Volvo, but maybe not... Read More
  • They are wonderful cars if maintained, let me say that again, maintained...I have a 9-3 with well over 200K, I had it the first ten years with ZERO problems, and drive it like a race car!

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.
