No, Everybody with that has a newer Saab already cannot get rid of them because the resale is so slow. I would love a 9-5, but since my 9 month old 900 SE is only worth $17,000 it will not happen. I guess that happens when you price a car too high; then a year later you offer a new car for less than the used one by offering $4,000 incentives. No, I'm not mad.... -Doug sfoynopsamhealthplan.com wrote: > I live in the Boston area and it appears to me that the new 9-5 is off to a > slow start.
