Anthony, Let me just say, I feel your pain.
But in general I've found very few people so far truly disenchanted with their SAABs.
I too know all about multiple car issues. As I've said my car has been in 14 times now. everything from a bad wheel bearing at 17K miles to a 1/4 inch of water on the floor. :P
I had a great test drive. Everything looked ok. There were just 2 issues I could find.
1) There appeared to be oil on the engine on the right side of it about 4-5 inches down from the valve cover. I couldn't see any evidence of a leaky gasket though.
2) There was a bit of a shake in the stick when I really punched on the accelerator. But nothing too much out of the ordinary from other sticks I've driven.
So, if financing goes through, I'll be a proud new Saab owner.
Thanks again for the help!
