Love the 9-5
Posted by Mike (more from Mike) on Mon, 22 Nov 2010 22:18:23
Nobody can fault me for loving Saabs. Either the 900, the 9-3 or the 9-5. They just look and perform wonderfully. Truth be told, I've never owned a Saab ( driven a few ) yet I'm interested in a 1999 9-5 V6. It has 73k on the odometer and the carfax is clean (Timing belt at 37k?). I desperately desire to purchase the car yet the Edmunds reviews are killing my dream. Any thoughts from Saab owners? I'm not opposed to doing my own work yet I have other obligations which demand my time. Knowing the necessity for the 60k timing belt and other regular investments, I'm willing to do the proper maintenance provided the performance and reliability can also be maintained.

Thoughts?
