    Good Points: It is a well built car and has some luxurious extras such as leather seats etc.


    Bad Points: Suspension is very hard. When roof is off the sun gets you right in the eyes.


    General comments: I had a Saab 9-3 turbo convertible. W reg for a year and I spent a fortune on it as it was always breaking down. i.e turbo went on the engine. Cam belt came off, crack in drive shaft. I loved the car when I bought it but it let me down on more than 1 occassion. I was very dissappointed. I now drive a Toyota, and what a brilliant car this is. I have not spent a penny on this car in a whole year apart from an interim service - and even that was faultless. My advice - buy a Toyota. They are the most reliable cars ever.

    I bought this Saab 9-3 SE Turbo on a whim, and I think I made a good decision. My wife had a cow when I purchased it because her father had an old Saab that was always in the shop.

    Well after she drove it she too likes it. It is fast, comfortable and sleek.

    Now the bad, the top hydraulic system cylinder started to leak. I replaced it and then found a leak in the hydraulic hose on the other side. After I repaired the hose, a small leak started in the coolant resorvior. I replaced ...

    The Saab 9-3 SE Turbo is an excellent all round car - at home on long journeys (has a great trunk and very comfortable). Power comes in smooth and strong. Fuel consumption can be fairly high (low 20s) when booting it.

    Bought the SAAB 9-3 Convertible SE Turbo secondhand a few months ago with 75,000miles on it but with perfect service history. Drives and looks as new. I would like to have heated seats so I would feel even more toasty in the winter with the top down. This car is a wolf in sheep's clothing. There may be fractions of seconds in performance terms between the SAAB and equivilent BMWs, Volvos and Audis, but the torque in that all important 50-70 range is mighty for a 1985cc engine in a car weighing 1 ...

    For the person (Swen from Sweden) that mentioned that Fiat is a third world country car therefore implying that Italy is a third World country, please get your fact straight.

    Unlike you, Italians are one of the most civilized countries in the world. Obviously Sweden is lacking class if people like your self live there.

    As you mentioned (aside from the unnecessary comments), Fiats are in a different class. It's like compairing a Chevy to a Cadillac, it's just not the right comparison. ...

    The Saab 9-3 turbo is is a great car for those long journeys when you dont want to feel every imperfection in the road. The Power is fantastic and makes a great sound. The car oozes quality and stands out as being a classy motor in black.
