My 2004 9-3 Linear was totalled last week in an accident. At 35,000 miles, I had no problems with the car (I purchased it new), despite what I've read in recent years about its poor reliability. I will miss that car!
Now I need to replace it...I'm considering other makes (e.g. Audi A3) as well as a 2007 9-3 (I'm assuming they are still around; I'd consider a 2008 9-3 but I really don't like the new exterior).
Is there any reason to believe that the 2007 9-3 is any more or less reliable than the 2004 9-3? I'm sure Saab/GM introduced changes over this three year span, but is it essentially the same car?
Thanks in advance for any insight and/or sharing of knowledge!
