What do you think of the Saab? Is it reliable? I hear they are quite good.??

No Good, just check Consumers, Edmunds.com

l own a SAAB 9-5 and l love it! It have given me no problems, and is a VERY solid vehicle.

Gas guzzler, hard to get parts. Better buying a Toyota

Saab is are wonderful. They are sleek and gorgeous. If you would like to add some personalization to your Saab, head over to

Your best bet is to check Consumer Reports. They have the repair history of cars in their car issue. l think Saab is used to be unreliable but l think they have gotten better. l would definitely research it before l bought it.

go to consumerreports.com
and do a vehicle search.thats what we used when we bought our new car

its a fine car, but repairs are pricey.it may be hard to find a tech. to fix problems

You must not have heard from a Saab owner. l own a 9-3 & l will just put it this way. Get to know ur dealership is service manager REALLY well. You may want to take him out for drinks or dinner because you're going to see him a LOT if u own one of these cars. You might as well buy a Chevy, it is basically the same thing. A General Motors POS.

Oh, & good luck with the parent company, GM, doing anything to help u resolve defects with the car. l am currently in a dispute because Saab is customer service admits that the car has defective parts in it but claims that it is something they cannot correct. WTF? How can u build a POS & admit that something is wrong but ur engineers cannot fix it?

Very nice to drive, feels solid, cheap for a luxury car, reliable, and safe. l could go on and on about the good things, but do buy a new model. However l do see many more old SAABS than any other competitor of the era.
PS Toyota had the most recalls of any company last year and Ford had more than GM and DaimlerChrysler combined. Fords problems werent like a slightly defective transmission, but more like wheels falling apart and engines blowing up

l just bought a used Saab & have had it for a year. l did a lot of research before l bought the car. From all the reading l did alot of problem with Saab started when they were bought out by GM. The one l bought is a 1998 Saab 900 which was made before the buyout. l have had small problems but nothing strange for a used car. Parts r expensive because alot of them u have to buy from the dealership. Even keys have to be ordered from the dealer. All & all l really like my car. It is fun to drive, reliable & feel safe to drive. My Saab weighs almost as much as my minivan.

They r very reliable, but u will have to pay if it needs work. l spent well over $1000 to rebuild my A/C with the compressor costing $700 alone!! l drove my 86 900 Turbo until l got tired of putting money into it. If l had the energy & funds, l would try to get it running again. Parts for the older models r spare around here. l got a used part for $5 that would have cost $275 (used) to fix my ABS. l love driving my 92 900 also as much as l did my 86. 200K miles is not unheard of on the pre-GM Classic models.

I've had a 1987 Saab 9S for 19 years (it is still a daily driver) & in 2002 l bought another one (9-5 Aero). For the price they're the best on the market & r a blast to ride. As far as repairs; find a good independent repair shop & avoid the dealerships for great care. If you're anywhere near Denver, ScandiaTek is unbelievable.
The car is so reliable, l just adore it. A used Saab would be a great purchase; they do not hold their value at all, so a purchase price on a used Saab would be a steal & registration fees fall rapidly.
Do not believe ''Consumer Reports for some reason they really do not like Saabs.
Good luck!

u heard right
