  • Just O.K. - 2005 Saab 9-2X
    By -

    First of all Im a 21 year old college student. Its a black Aero with Cold & premium pkgs. I got this car myself its my 1st car and couldnt wait to get it. With the employee pricing it was hard to pass up. But to that I add I shouldve gotten the new "06" Civc this car feels very questionable in the quality department. Its very slow off the line you have to practically floor it at every light to get it going which cancelled out the fuel efficiency of the 4cyl that it has as opposed to the "06" v6 eclipse i wanted its the same MPG. The steering is said to be direct aka "Not enough power steering boost". I dont how Saab even thought this car would sell for 30k !!!

  • Not impressed... - 2005 Saab 9-2X

    I thought that buying a new 9-2X would be better than my other choice the V50. Im starting to think the other way around especially since the interior quality isnt that great. The sun visors are slightly loose and the center armrest console is too. I still like the car, but theres better choices out there and too bad I had to find out the hard way.

    the 2005 Saab Linear is fairly reliable and provides good gas mileage. However this car provides little if any driving enjoyment. I drive 35,000 miles annually and it didnt take long for the negative details of this car to outweigh the positive. The sound system is poor at best, the interior materials are low end economy car quality (I know if is an Impreza, but still) and the ride is noisy (yes, I have tried different tires). These elements coupled with a low fun to drive quotient strikes the Saab off of my future purchase list.
