Well, our saab is a mixed bag.
It's a very comfortable car that handles very well and can haul a lot of stuff for a good price ( we got it used ). At 4 years old, it looks new and i think it will look that way fro many years to come--it's well built.
The car has had it's share of quirks and problems, though, some of which the dealer couldn't fix, some of which were inordinately expensive. A corroded positive battery cable cost us $307 to fix. My indie mechanic say that $700 for an oxygen sensor might not be out of line--on a BMW it's a $40 part!
If you get the SE, you will need snow tires--the stock tires are worthless on any snow or ice whatsoever.
So i have mixed feelings about the car--perhaps we will hit 200,000 miles and have a great car and repair prices will level off. Or maybe we will get socked with a few huge repairs, and we'll be very sorry we didn't lease a new one.
