Used Saab 9-5 for Sale near Birmingham, AL

I have owned several of these 9-5s, excellent comfortable and quick vehicles. If you are interested in Saabs and you can find a clean rust free 9-5 you will not be disappointed. The 2008 aero trim provides comfortable bolstered seats and plenty of power. Be warned, as these cars are approaching 20 years old at this point, most of them will need lots of refurbishment, if you are a DIY, then this is a great project to be had for under 5000. This is the kind of car that should be maintained by someone who knows Saabs if you do not work on your vehicles. Parts availability is still decent for the 9-5, all of the maintenance parts are cheap and fairly easy to install. The pitfalls of this iteration are rust, especially in the rear wheel arch, foggy headlights, poor interior quality especially tears in the seats, most cars still have their original suspension and motor mounts which will lead to sloppy ride and a commonly misdiagnosed oil leak from the chain tensioner seals. Overall I would highly recommend this car if you can find a clean example. I would budget around 2000 for annual maintenance.

Quirky but good power and great to drive. Particularly like the throttle-by-wire that has different sensitivity depending upon when 'sport' button is pressed.

We custom ordered this 9-5 arc from Sweden in 2004 and after 176,000 it is still going strong. Mobil1 0w 40 every 5,000 miles and routine transmission fluid flushed are the key. This is a great family/sports/luxury car that has been very reliable. Only had to replace the throttle body and ignition casset. Great car and I would highly recommend it.

Love that it has everything except ventilated seats! It has navigation, voice commands, rear seat DVD entertainment system, all wheel drive, amazingly unique stylling, power, heads up display, adaptive xenon head lights, 18" wheels. 2.8 liter Turbo charged V6. This car turns heads everywhere I go. "That's a really nice car!" the original MSRP was $54,000 and I got it in 2012 for $25,000.

Its quick holds a lot of cargo and carries 4 in great comfort or 5 with a squeeze. Its no stoplight racer but has enough power to enjoy and passing power is superb. Upgrades are easy as with most modern turbo cars and the biggest mods being needed are better downpipe and intercooler and 3 in exhaust and then a simple ecu tune and 300+ hp wagon is a reality. Gas mileage on highway is great avg 34+ mpg
