R.I.P. 2007 SAAB 9-5 Posted by Herb Hirsch [Email] (#114) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Herb Hirsch) on Mon, 25 May 2015 13:57:39 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
My last SAAB, a 2007 9-5 Aero sedan, was totaled on Thursday, May 21, 2015. My wife had been using it for a little more than 3 years. She loved the car and was planning to keep it for another 2-3 years.
I've enjoyed SAAB's since 1967, a total of 48 years. I enjoyed just about every model SAAB offered during that period. My favorites included the 900's and the 9-5's, although my first 99 was exciting. My least favorite was a 1985 9000 that constantly required maintenance. I always bought new, so my excitement of a new car was always a new SAAB.
I'll really miss having a SAAB to travel to the SAAB convention with. Now, my wife bought a new Subaru Legacy which she'll take delivery on in 3-4 weeks. I'll continue with my 2012 Audi A6 3.0L which I bought new and is a very fine car, but I don't have the same feeling I had when I was driving a SAAB.
I'll maintain my membership in Nines and the SAABnet.com. And, I'll contribute where my maintenance experience might help.
Regards,
Herb Hirsch
