  Saab SE TURBO - 1996 Saab 900
  By cptmcf - December 12 - 10:00 am

  I have a boxster and saab conv turbo...the saab is a great car, I have had no problems with it, like any car it needs to be properly maintained and driven responsibly, If you do that this car will last. I will probably trade both cars in on a new 911 next year.

  Best little car around! - 1996 Saab 900
  By Susannah - November 16 - 10:00 pm

  I needed a car that was safe, reliable, and fun. I am very pleased to say that the Saab SE Turbo fits all those catagories. It is quite reliable (and it has 75,000 miles). It always performs flawlessly. It is REALLY fun to drive (without busting your wallet in gas money)! Put the top down, find a nice back road, and prepare to have mucho fun! Luckily I havent tested its safety but I have no doubt that, due to how its performance so far, it would keep me safe in the event of an accident. I highly recommend this car!

  Best car I ever owned - 1996 Saab 900
  By danb - June 3 - 3:10 am

  I bought my car new it was a demo model with 3490miles on it. As of 4/17/08 I have 148,000 on this car. The car has been garage kept and only driven from April to Early October. I get approx 24mpg city and as high of 31mpg highway. The best advice i can give people to maintian this car is oil changes every 3000miles, trans fluid chages every 7500.( The trans was not one of their best) I change plugs every year. Recently I have had to change the transmission module. ( Sent it out for rebuild $120 and reinstalled.

  Love it - 1996 Saab 900
  By Beachlover - March 30 - 2:00 am

  I bought a 96 Saab 900 SE 6 cylinder off-lease and could not have asked for a better running, more fun car. Not only does it handle well, but its fun to drive and still gets compliments and comments from other drivers. Love the heated seats in the winter and also that the car, even though it is a convertible in not very noisy. Would do it all over again.

  Saab 900s basic - 1996 Saab 900
  By Alex - March 29 - 3:40 am

  Ive owned many Saabs. I picked up a basic 900s (no leather, no moon roof, non-turbo 4 cylinder) for a good price and its very reliable and economical. The huge cargo capacity beats any compact car.

  900SE Turbo - 1996 Saab 900
  By onejohny - February 10 - 2:00 am

  This car is fast, confortable, fun to drive, can haul a lot, gets decent mileage, excellent on long trips. Excellent car in cold climates (heated seats) but make sure you put on winter tires. If you have to own one car that will do everything well this is it. This car will hit you with some high repair bills if youre not careful. Getting an extended waranty paid off on this car as the power seat and climate control both failed and were covered. If poperly maintained it is an excellent car, but dont expect the operating costs of a Honda.

  doesnt dissapoint - 1996 Saab 900
  By tg240kmh - October 23 - 3:59 pm

  I bought my mothers 1996 Se with a turbo and what I can say in the beginning,I bought the car mostly because it was all i could afford.At first i didnt want to touch it.Right now its going through some problems.I recently had to by an alternator belt to bypass the a/c compressor.Im having to deal with lagging power due to broken exhaust studs(sad but true).My mom bought it with one hundred,sixty-seven thousand miles on a turned odometer from Plotty"s Auto Sales.Some miraculous sign.I have never seen the check engine light once.I have put a lot of time and money into her and I must say Im hitched on this company.The reviews put me on the spot to show my gratitude.Saabs are very reliable.
