I love the saab 9000 for the intense power, the cargo area, the comfort, the look (with 16s or 17s,) the gas mileage, the safety... I almost gave up on the 9000 because of the "little quirks." Decided to buy another 9000T 5spd because I assumed that saab fixed alot of the issues. After looking at many used 9000s from 1995-1998, I saw that Saab did not fix very much of anything. Test drives hooked back into the 9000 family. Working on my 9000s is not so bad now that I know the car from bumper to bumper from past experiences. Atleast the cars have same parts, good and bad.
