Gary: FWIW, I've had my 9-3 SE for about 18 months. It has been to the dealer for the free scheduled maintenance, and otherwise has required only that I put in gas.
While the car is practical, I doubt the eggheads at Consumer Reports could appreciate the visceral thrill of the thrust and the whistle of the turbo spooling up in second gear, or the crackle of the sport exhaust as you downshift before a curve.
It is a remarkably versatile car, and you would think they would at least be impressed with the economics of getting that much performance out of a small, efficient, and environmentally friendly powerplant.
Get as much advice as you can, but it's your car, and you should get what you really want. Good Luck, Erik
