I have a 2009 TurboX (XWD V6) and this is my third Saab (1985 SPG, 2001 Viggen Convertible):
-Batteries are disposable. Replace once a year (per service dealer. Mine failed at 15K miles)
-Battery failing fried the fuel tank sensor. Rear-end dropped to access fuel tank. In shop 2 days.
-Runs rough cold. 3 coils replaced but stil a bit rough. Need to get the other three replaced (under warranty).
My feeling is that some parts are of marginal design (GM??) and aftermarket parts, if available, might be better. But I bought 100K mile warranty. Third Saab afterall.
That said, GREAT highway cruiser. My Lexus IS350 is a bit quicker off the line and quicker handling but not as comfortable as the Saab for longer trips.
Get the manual or drive in Sport Mode.
