  LOTS OF FUN - 2002 Saab 9-3
  By DAVIDR - September 10 - 2:00 am

  THIS CAR IS JUST PLAIN FUN TO DRIVE. LOTS OF POWER FROM THE 230 HP TURBO. IF YOURE LIKE ME, THEN YOU LOOK FOR UNUSUAL STYLING IN AN AUTO. NOT TOO MANY ON THESE ARE AROUND. I JUST LIKE TO BE A LITTLE DIFFERENT THAN THE OTHER GUY ON THE ROAD. TOP NOTCH SPORT LEATHER SEATS AND INTERIOR. TORQUE STEER TAKES SOME GETTING USED TO. THIS CAR CAN GET OUT FROM UNDER YOU, ESPECIALLY IN 3RD AND 4TH GEAR

  VIGGEN! - 2002 Saab 9-3
  By Champ - August 7 - 3:53 pm

  The Viggen has been a great car. Great performance all while obtaining great gas mileage. Front seats are a dream to sit in. In all climate areas, make sure to put the Continental Extremes on this car. This tire is great in snow, water and still is Z rated for performance. This car is highly recommended. This car was built in the same plant as the Porsche Boxter.

  unique styling gets lots of looks - 2002 Saab 9-3
  By D Williams - July 5 - 11:26 pm

  I had to decide between the SAAB and a Mustang V6. Ill never look back. As rare as it is in advertising these days, SAAB has stumble onto a truth. I think its something like "Most people who drive one, buy one." I agree. After driving the SAAB I didnt even go back to the Ford dealer.

  Get one before they are gone! - 2002 Saab 9-3
  By seanbarrett02 - June 28 - 10:00 am

  I got this car a few weeks ago and it is the best car for the money. It has the type of luxury and comfort that you would expect from a $40k car and the performance to match it. There arent many left as they are clearing the inventories for the new 2003 model, so get yours now.

  Saab 9-3 SE Convertible - 2002 Saab 9-3

  Excellent responsive tight convertible. Outstanding top and drivetrain. Brisk acceleration and excellent brakes. Completely weather tight with top up. Outstanding handling.

  Nice, Nice, NIce - 2002 Saab 9-3
  By henry - April 16 - 9:03 am

  We have been looking for a convertible which I fit into. I am 69" and am able to drive and ride comfortably. The car is one of my favorites for styling & perfomance. 2.0 liter is amazing bullet proof and the auto shifts smooth and is fun to drive. If you want a nicely priced used convertible the Saab is 2nd to none.

  Fun and Fast - 2002 Saab 9-3
  By Seanc - February 21 - 10:00 am

  This is my 2nd Saab purchased in one year. Although the design is older (8 years), this car still has soul and class. Very fast, sure handling and practical for a convertible (trunk is a good size, 4 usable seats, 30 mpg). I leased the car, but if all goes well, this is a keeper for many years.

  Surprising - 2002 Saab 9-3
  By JGC - November 28 - 10:00 am

  I have owned three convertibles but this one is the best by far. I was not in the market for a Saab, I was looking at BMW and MB and Chrylser. The BMWs styling was old and the tops come with plastic windows. The MB CLK was nice but too pricey. I test drove the Saab and loved it. It is the quickest off the line and the top is great. The car has no rattles and wind noise is nonexistent. I drove the Volvo C70 to compare and it was slower, handled less well, rattled and was noisey with the top up. The back seats are useful, unlike any other car I considered. It is a great luxury sports car and the price is reasonable.

  Fun, Fun, Fun - 2002 Saab 9-3
  By Moanking - July 22 - 2:00 am

  The 9-3 Convertible is a complete gas to drive. Peppy, with excellent seats and a ragtop. Wont write any records off the line, but goes from 20-70 in a snap. Very smooth highway ride.
