If you get a 5 speed then it will be the base wagon, the SE only comes in automatic V6 configuration. Except of course for the new Aero wagon. :) > How long should it take to get?
I was told if we couldn't get the one I wanted from another dealer than 2 weeks to get it from the dock.
> Has anyone dealt with online buying? Autobytell, carorder.com > buysaabonline.com etc.
I'm on the west coast, so buysaabonline wasn't an option. Both autobytel and carpoint failed to provide a good price, or in autobytel's case, a price at all. > Does Saab offer a shop manual? How much? Are there > alternatives like Haynes. Do they publish on Microfich?
No. No. No.
The dealer service manual is a huge multi volume set.
They haven't even released a Bentley manual for the NG900 or 9-3 yet. Bentley's published the classic 900 8 and 16 valve manuals.
If you are considering installing any accessories yourself, let me know. I have installed (so far): * CD changer * Saab/Nokia hands free cell phone kit * sliding load floor * retractable cargo divider * side cargo net
Still have yet to do the trailer hitch and 12v outlet, they are sitting in my shop, although I did the trailer hitch install on my NG900 and it was pretty easy. The 9-5 wgn kit looks the same style.
The car's ride and performance are very impressive.
