  A real fun car to drive - 2006 Saab 9-2X
  By fred walters - August 1 - 11:03 pm

  This car is so much fun to drive. you must get the 5 speed standard shift to really appreciate the handling and the pickup. The fuel economy is very good. The quality is also very good and it looks great.

  One with the auto.... - 2006 Saab 9-2X
  By Chris Shuba - April 25 - 4:10 am

  I just bought this car a bit ago, and decided to go with the 2.5 linear simply because of cost and fuel economy. They both get relatively similar mileage, but the aero takes premium. Aside from that the car is a dream. Though the engine does lag a bit when the petals fully down, this thing is quick. The "cock-pit" flawlessly integrates the driver into the vehicle. The most attractive feature is the suspension. The car glides silently and smoothly over any road abnormality. Its a clean, simple, beautiful automobile. Quirky and different it may be, but its solid and practical as well. I look forward to errands... nough said.

  the 9-2X is great - 2006 Saab 9-2X

  Dollar for dollar, the best car I have owned. In addition, low production numbers (10,000 approx) should aid in holding its resale.

  Aero 9-2X - 2006 Saab 9-2X

  This has been a reliable, superb-handling, and practical car. The aero has great acceleration - the turbo is well-engineered from Subarus boxer line. Great on dry pavement and on snow.

  Great purchase - 2006 Saab 9-2X
  By NY owner - December 16 - 10:50 pm

  This is a great car, the handling and performance is excellent, and with the rebates given when the model was going out, it was an amazing purchase. I specially love cornering in twisty roads and the response in steering.
