9-5 Linear: A Great Automobile

Date of Review:  Feb 11, 2003
The Bottom Line: If you want a sedan to comfortably move four adults anywhere and make the driver extra content, this is an excellent choice that will inspire no regrets.
Review: This car does everything a great car should without raising any valid complaints. It has ample power for day to day driving, even if your day to day driving requires that you have power squeeze into places rather than sit and wait for your turn. At...

Worst car I have ever owned.

Date of Review:  Jan 24, 2007
The Bottom Line: Avoid this car unless you have an iron-clad warranty.
Review: I bought a 2002 ARC wagon in April 2004. At what I thought was a fair price of 26K, I had hoped that this car would last at least ten years, since I like to keep my cars for a long time. We had problems with this car within a month of purchase:

Good value, but a little soft

Date of Review:  Oct 16, 2005
The Bottom Line: Don't buy one new, but you can get a great car for not much on the secondary markets.
Review: I bought a fully loaded 2002, low miles 9-5 ACR on Ebay and had it shipped over to me in Eastern Europe. I know it sounds like a coals to Newcastle thing, but used cars are a lot cheaper in the US. I paid about 13k for a car that is almost 3 times...

Saab 9-5 Arc - Best Car I Ever Owned

Date of Review:  Dec 7, 2002
The Bottom Line: Why spend so much extra money on a BMW or a Lexus? The American public needs to discover this treasure.
Review: I purchased a 2002 Saab 9-5 Arc sedan in August, 2002. Before taking the plunge, I considered the BMW 5 series, the Lexus GS, and the Lexus ES.

I test drove all four cars. The Saab 9-5 ended up feeling like a combination of the other...

My Wife's Silver Spaceship

Date of Review:  Jun 26, 2003
The Bottom Line: If you're looking for something a little different even quirky with world class performance and safety features, look no further.
Review: In May my wife and I attracted by GM's 0% financing offer decided to look at Saabs. Originally we had planned to purchase a new vehicle, but happened upon a lightly used 2002 9-5 Arc Sportwagon with barely 7000 on the odometer. We decided to give it...

Saab 9-5 Arc V-6

Date of Review:  Jun 27, 2006
The Bottom Line: A very well constructed European automobile. Extremely solid, safe, and reliable.
Review: I have owned many SAAB's over the years as I have always liked "different". Well my last SAAB was a 900 Turbo, which was a maintenance headache.
Enter the SAAB 9-5. The Arc model is more of a luxury SAAB versus the high performance Aero model...

2002 Saab Linear

Date of Review:  May 29, 2007
Review: I loved my Saab. It was nicely appointed with comfortable seats and a classy interior. I sold it because I had a number of problems with it that if they had occurred out of warranty would have been very expensive. My whole display panel had to be...

Best car I've had!

Date of Review:  May 5, 2003
The Bottom Line: This is the best car I've ever driven. Better space and safety than BMW 5-series and cheaper!
Review: I was looking at Audi A6, and BMW 5-series, but I just had to choose this one. Saab has a special character, and is compellingly fun to drive. The 2.0 litre 150 engine delivers a very smooth drive, and isn't in any way slow for normal driving, of...

Long-term 9-5 Review

Date of Review:  May 28, 2007
Review: We bought our Saab 9-5 Linear "premium package" Sportwagon CPO'ed through a Saab dealer in 2005. Since then we have racked up the mileage, putting on another 40000 miles on it. In our search for a "wagon" type vehicle we cross shopped Mercedes C240...

2003 95 Areo Sedan

Date of Review:  Jun 30, 2003
The Bottom Line: This care hates to be in the city putterin around 20-35mph.Loves to be on the highway and just go.
Review: I've had this care for 5000 miles now. It's FAST, fun to drive, gets looks all the time. I have 2 friends that have Audi A4 1.8 quattro's and I leave them at the tolls booths all the time. This car loves to cruse at between 80-95mph. Get this car ,...
