My response would be no. Not in the same way that Japanese or American cars are. Since SAAB is a "cult car" such an opinion is considered heresy. If you talk to independent repair shop owners you will likely find that that European cars as a group have a higher frequency of repair than Japanese. You may also find that Toyota tends to be about the best of the Japanese. This is precisely what I have found by asking a couple people I know who own independent repair shops. One of whom has had my 93 SAAB for almost a month trying to diagnose an ignition problem. They are Bosche specialists, so they're not unknowledgeable about such systems.
