I am thinking of buying/leasing a 2002 SAAB 9^3 with automatic transmission (no flaming please - I live in bumper-to-bumper traffic). As I live in the U.S., the only available version is the SE 2.0 Turbo (I believe it is the HOT). Is there anything I should know about the car (good and bad)? This will be my first SAAB, but I have loved the 9^3/900S from the time I saw it after the body change in 1993(?). I especially like the utility of the hatchback design with sportiness of the entire car - something I understand will not be around with the new 9^3s due out at the end of the year. I read some earlier posts and agree that the 9^5 is definately more car and a better value - but again, I like the utility of the hatch. Essentially, I guess I want to know if would you buy it again? And, is the car solid (read that to mean rattle-free)? Thanks. Michael
