Saab 9-5 linear is a very well-engineered Swedish machine. Saab started out
first with the intent to build airplanes. Demand was low shortly after so with
the same engineering they soon started building cars. Kind of like B.M.W., these
vehicles are not built like your average American or foreign car.
This
is not your older Saab; they claim that there were 1,100 changes to
substantially improve this generation. These are very thoroughly built with
comfort, convenience and SAFETY in mind for you, the consumer. Did you know
that the Saab 9-3 and 9-5 were the first cars in the world to earn the max
score in a side impact crash test? The standard side impact airbags have a lot
to do with this. Saab decided to carry this to every car no matter what budget.
The
experts from the consumer guide rated this car a 58, same as the Volkswagen
Passat. Impressive! The BMW 3-series was rated lower at 56. Volvo’s S40 rated
47. Mercedes-Benz C-class rated a 46 and the Audi A4 received a 45. These are based
upon 10 different categories from ‘99-‘02. Saab’s 9-3 beat all of these high
end vehicles and most likely you never knew or considered Saab. People are
starting to catch on and now. VW is in high demand, just like Honda was and
still is. Be ahead of the game and buy a Saab now before the prices become
unfair.
Yes, Saab filed bankruptcy and they are no longer in business as of right now. I have heard people are scared as their concern is about parts and labor. There will always be parts available in the replacement and modification market. They are not harder to find than any other car nor more expensive. They might be a little harder to find than Honda, because they are not mass produced, low quality parts. As for the labor side, any mechanic can work on these vehicles. I have not heard of different rates because it is a Saab. This is not a Porsche, where a tune up is going to cost you $500. An oil change is going to cost the same as your average car and you don’t need to be an engineer to do it yourself. I thought it would be nice to share some information I have learned over time. Finally… INTERIOR:
Saab’s generally attract buyers that are very meticulous and neat. This 9-5
looks barely worn. The black leather seats look great, no rips, tears and
barely even creased. Carpets look good. There are no offensive odors in the car.
The spare tire, jack and tools are all still there. The quality and workmanship
shows in this vehicle. I noticed the ‘night mode button’ and I had to push it.
This shuts off or dims the lights that are not important for the driver. This
creates less distraction for the driver when driving in the night. I think this
feature would be great for the women. I noticed the dash cup holder does work
properly, and there is one in the center console. I think there is a component
part not functioning properly. I have not noticed any significant signs of
wear. The A/C was cold and easy to use. The sunroof works great and all the
windows. Everything works!
EXTERIOR:
The body looks straight and sharp! With its own unique look similar to none it
is very sleek looking. There are no obvious scratches of dents. There is a
small ding on the driver side of the rear door. The tires all look great as you
can see in the pictures. The fog light covers are gone, but it is actually
barely noticeable.
MOTOR/HANDLING:
The Saab 9-5 was very impressive to drive. Saab did not lack in any category as
far as, acceleration, suspension, comfort, ease of use. This car definitely
feels safe to be in. I can feel the turbo spoil up and the boost gauge works
properly indicating everything is running smooth. It is very risky to buy a car
online without knowing the condition of the turbo. The gears went in smooth and
the clutch is very sensitive, feels new. The suspension felt great and steering
was excellent. This is a fun daily driver, safe, reliable, and sporty. I admire
the EcoPower engine. It was designed to put out high power and torque when it
is needed, BUT still delivers good fuel economy and low emissions. I looked up
the avg. mpg for this car and found people are averaging 28.5 miles per gallon
in the gas engines. I think anywhere around that would be great. When I was
driving I noticed the check endine light is on, ABS light, Brake light, and the
speedometer was not working. The code ready P1625 and I did some research. This
is a SIMPLE FIX. If you clean the ABS TCS module,
all of these problems are linked and they will all be fixed. At worst case just
buy a new one for under $100. Saablink.net will provide you with the same info,
just do some light research. This car feels very reliable and I would have no
doubt in driving it across the country. It was taken on a 3 hour drive with no
problems!
To
sum up this car, this car is probably what most of you are looking for,
something safe for your first time driver, cheap, and easy to insure also. Are
you looking for a gas efficient car that’s not from the 90’s? Or maybe you are
looking for a daily driver, something to put miles on, either way this car has
got you covered and it should deliver more than what you need. This car will
get you where you need to be safe and cost effective, and it will last you as
long as you need it. It is just broken in. It is simple, if you need a car like
this for cheap, just buy it!

Future Classic: 1999-2002 Saab 9-3 Viggen
Mon, Jan 30 2023Given the company’s now-defunct status, you could argue that all Saabs are future classics. Even the final round of cars from the era of General Motors ownership deserve their place in history. Seriously, how hot was the last 9-5? Handsome design and quirky features were hallmarks of the Saab brand, and its cars felt every bit as premium as its primary European competitors. But while other luxury carmakers put great effort into full lineups of performance cars, Sweden only produced the odd sporty Saab every once in a while. One of our favorites was the 9-3 Viggen from the turn of the century, and itÂ’s a car that still makes us swoon today. Why is the Saab 9-3 Viggen a future classic? Saab's whole "born from jets" tagline never really made much sense, but at least the 9-3 Viggen's name was a nod to the company's aerospace roots. The Swedish word "Viggen" translates to "thunderbolt" in English, and this name was used on the Saab 37 Viggen aircraft that entered service in the early 1970s. MotorWeek | Retro Review: '99 Saab Viggen The 9-3 Viggen used a turbocharged 2.3-liter inline-four engine, most notably remembered for its eyebrow-raising 20 psi of boost pressure. Rated at 225 horsepower – which was later bumped up to 230 hp – and 252 pound-feet of torque, this engine was paired exclusively with a five-speed manual transmission and front-wheel drive. Stiffer suspension components, firmer dampers, stronger driveshafts, a heavy-duty clutch and a revised exhaust were also part of the package. The Viggen was relatively quick, with Saab quoting a 0-to-60-mph time of around 6.5 seconds. However, the 9-3 Viggen is largely remembered for things like its ridiculous turbo lag and torque steer – characteristics that kind of made this car hilarious to drive, even if they took away from overall sharpness and composure. What is the ideal example of the Saab 9-3 Viggen? Saab offered the 9-3 Viggen as a three-door hatchback, five-door hatchback and two-door convertible. And while this car is most commonly remembered in its launch shade, Lightning Blue, Saab offered the Viggen in black, gray, red, silver and yellow. You could even spec the interior with blue, orange or tan leather accents. Arguably the most iconic 9-3 Viggen spec is a Lightning Blue three-door hatch, but the other colors are far more rare. WeÂ’ve got a major soft spot for a Monte Carlo Yellow five-door, but really, you canÂ’t go wrong.
Junkyard Gem: 1983 Saab 900 Turbo 4-Door Hatchback
Sun, Mar 20 2022I've been finding quite a few interesting Saabs in Colorado car graveyards lately, including a 96 and a 99 (sadly, a discarded example of a Saab 92 has eluded me — at least in the United States — so far), and now it's the turn of the factory-hot-rod Saab that gave car shoppers more horsepower per dollar than anything they could buy from Germany at the time: the 900 Turbo. I found this car a few weeks back in a yard just south of Denver. Saab sold the original version of the 900 in the United States for the 1979 through 1993 model years (after that, the 900 name went on a car based on the Opel Vectra and closely related to the Saturn L-Series), and the early 900s looked very much like their 99 ancestors. Saab was an early adopter of turbocharging, and so the 900 Turbo was available here for the entire 1979-1993 sales run. This engine, a 2-liter slant-four derived from a 1960s Triumph design (and first cousin to the engine used in the Triumph TR7), was rated at 135 horsepower in 1983. That was big power for a small car in the Late Malaise Era, and it gave the 1983 Saab 900 Turbo a power-to-weight ratio similar to what you got in the Mitsubishi Starion and Porsche 944 that year. Electronic fuel injection finally made turbocharging work well for everyday driving (though the Maserati Biturbo stuck with blow-throw Weber carburetors all the way through 1986 in the United States), and it wasn't long before TURBO became a magical word. Yes, by 1984 you had Ozone and Turbo break-dancing while Ice-T makes his film debut. A few years earlier, with the (carbureted) Turbo Trans Am's not-so-stellar reliability on display, Boogaloo Shrimp's character would have been assigned a different name. Though it's possible, based on the fact that at least one 1980s boombox was built from a Saab 900 dash, that Turbo's name was inspired by Saab. Saab should get credit for doing so much to push turbocharging into the daily-driver mainstream. You could get a three-speed Borg-Warner automatic transmission in your new 1983 Saab 900, but it added 370 bucks (about $1,075 in 2022 dollars) to the cost of the car and made it much less fun to drive. This one has the 5-speed manual; I assume the E next to fifth gear stands for "efficiency." The five-door 900 Turbo listed at $16,910 with five-speed manual, which comes to about $49,055 today. A new BMW 528e cost $23,985 that year ($69,580 now) and offered just 121 horsepower.
There will be five new SAAB EVs, starting in 2017
Thu, Dec 17 2015National Electric Vehicle Sweden (NEVS), which bought Swedish automaker Saab out of bankruptcy in 2012, has finally solidified some of its vehicle-making plans. And given the prominence of the word "electric" in the company's name, NEVs is staying true to its vision, announcing that it will have five electric vehicle models for sale by 2018. The company recently made the announcement in Stockholm, according to Saab Blog. The first EV will be based on the Saab 9-3 platform and may be available in China and Sweden by 2017. The following year, NEVS is planning to debut four more all-electric models, including a sports car, SUV, crossover, and a fastback. The cars will be assembled in Tianjin, China. Whether the Saab badge will actually be used remains in question, as NEVS is no longer affiliated with the Saab AB aerospace company. Making things even potentially murkier is the fact that NEVS said this fall that it would sell the intellectual property rights for the 9-3 to the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK), which would make the model the official Turkish National Car. Then again, nothing's been simple for Saab, which has passed through General Motors and Spyker and has had multiple reorganizations. Either way, the plan follows up a summer announcement that NEVS would work with China-based automaker Dongfeng Motor Corp. to develop electrified vehicles. Dongfeng has worked with electric-vehicle leaders Nissan and Renault as well as Honda, Kia and Peugeot. The company made more than 3.8 million vehicles in 2014.
