New owner; older Aero. I bought a '93 Aero from a local dealer about a month ago. White with black (though they said charcoal), 88K miles. Seems in great shape. My dealer even hooked me up with a set of used snows on Saab alloy rims at a great price. I read the posts about concerns -- specifically the TCS on this model year (no shut-off). I drove the car, with the snows (Gislaved NordFrosts), in 6 inches of snow last weekend with no problem. The TCS engaged only once for a few moments. So, so far, so good.
I love this car -- really LOVE IT! I have never before enjoyed driving so much. I had read lots of postings on this site before buying -- now I know what all the fuss is about. I cannot imagine ever driving another car.
The dealer provided me with only a two-month warranty. I have been paying close attention to the car, and have had several minor things fixed so far (adjustment to shifter, repaired window regulator, replaced side mirror because defroster didn't work . . .). I am taking it to a local shop owned by a Certified Saab Mechanic (so he says) for a thorough inspection before the warranty is up. I've heard mention of purchasing extended warranties -- where do I go for that?
On a minor note, the rear speakers on my car are atrocious!! They sound like they are playing through a wall. The car is equipped with a Clarion equalizer, but this doesn't help much. Does the lousy sound have to do with the placement of the rear speakers in the car, or can I replace them for better sound? Any suggestions on speaker brands?
Sorry to be so long-winded. Thanks for listening.
P.S. To Bob Alimi -- what a wonderful site! Thank you for all of the information.
