    Fantastic And Very Happy With It — I love the power coming from the turbo charged 4 cylinder motor. Braking and handling is very good too. My car is very fun to drive, especially on winding bends using the gear paddle shifters on the steering wheel. All my friends like my car and the Saab brand also.

    Primary Use: Commuting to work

    Pros: I really like the styling of the Car. It stands out in a crowd of Japanese cars.
    High power turbo.

    Cons: Can't think of anything worth writing. Except front wheel drive, i do prefer RWD.

    I Have Loved This Car. — Appearance, handling, acceleration, all make this car a pleasure to drive. Don't think I could drive a car that's not turbocharged after owning my 9-5. This is has been my 2nd 9-5, and I'm really struggling to not buy a 3rd. :)

    Primary Use: Commuting to work

    Pros: Value for the money has been fantastic.

    Cons: Would love to have a "green" car.  That's the only drawback.

    2005 Saab 9-5 Aero — This baby can really perform. Its ergonomic layout in the cockpit is fantastic. She is pure joy to drive. INGA makes driving fun whenever you jump behind the steering wheel. She is sheik and stylish in jet black. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She truly is a LONG COOL WOMAN IN A BLACK DRESS.

    Primary Use: Family transportation

    Pros: bumper to bumper

    Cons: Can't find any.

    Best car that I have ever owned. Super fast car with excellent handling capabilities. Mine was purchased in Europe and then came to the US. Love the manual transmission and carbon fiber dash.
