Subject: Re: Why Saab?


I don't expect impartial answers, but I know that you will be honest. I would like to buy a new Saab. My wife and I drove the 9-5 today. It is a sweet ride! I expected a little sticker shock and at 36K I got a little shocked. This would be the most expense car that I have ever bought. I just loved this car instantly. Heated seats, power everything, I don't recall cruise control but I rarely every use it anyway. I'm a little curious about the four cylinder engine. I have been partial to the 6 cylinder chevys for a while. Will the four cylinder hold up to the many miles that I will but on this car or will it grow weaker with each passing day. The dealer worked up some financing plans to calculate a payment. Saab has a 3.9% deal with 10% down for 48 months the payment worked out to $775 per month. Ouch!! My wife almost hit the floor. Her chevy malibu is about 335 for 60 months. She is very willing to give me the Malibu if she can have the 9-5. thanks for the post, Ron Michael Arnold <Michael.Arnold2nopsamin.net> wrote in message news:7jbf5f$eoc$2nopsament3-gui.server.virgin.net... > Now you don't expect an impartial answer do you! > You didn't say whether you intend to buy new or used.
