Hi everyone. I really took a good look at the Saab 9-3 at a recent auto show and I really liked what I saw. I have an older volvo 740 that I really like but I just could not find anything on the market that reminded me of the old turbo cars. For some reason, this one does. Anyway, I am interested in the 9-3 linear with a manual tranny. I like this model without all the gps stuff and extra goodies. I just want a quality car. My question is are they as good as the old turbo volvos. I have searched the internet far and wide and it seems like people either have no problems at all (like old volvos) or they swear they are overpriced lemons. I have read that you must take care of them and that is fine as I am extremely picky about maintenence on my vehicles. Also, do they really sell a basic 9-3 for $26k or should I expect one for cheaper (new). Please help as Im sure everybody out there knows more about saabs than me. Any questions about volvos =-) ??Thanks
