Reviewed a 1978 Saab 99 on Aug 20, 2013

My husband and I owned this car for 18 years, and I sold it to buy my VW Golf GTi. I am not sorry I did but do wish we could have kept the Saab around for a hobby car. It is quirky, fun to drive, and SAFE. It's also slow since it's a heavy car with an underpowered engine (that's why they did the Turbo) and ours was not a Turbo. I also had biceps like Popeye since it did not have power steering! Braking was exceptionally good. It got good gas mileage and was a DREAM on the highway. We drove it to Nebraska from CA and back, twice, and it was the best car to travel in. It was a 5-door, meaning it had four passenger doors and one large hatch. We camped in it with the seat folded down and it held all our stuff plus a 90-lb Doberman! It will cost you a fortune to repair and maintain so unless you are willing to spend the money to do this get a Toyota instead. It's oddities made me love it more. If you are not like me and just want a basic cookie-cutter car you can thrash around, a Saab is not for you. They need tender loving care, and these old ones deserve it. I wish I could find my car, I'd buy it all over again.

I had two. '76 two-door 4-speed. Very aerodynamic. Great on ice and snow in Wisconsin. Lots of little problems but nothing major. Loved it and drove it for 13 years. Also had a 76 four door automatic. Lots of little quirks. Klunky transmission. Got rear-ended by a Jeep. Demolished the front end of the Jeep, put a teeny scratch on my rear bumper.

It's definitely not a performance car, but it is a solid car from the period with a great safety record. This is a fun car, with respectable gas mileage and maintenance and unique styling. The exterior is a love/hate relationship with most people, but the interior is just what would be expected from the period. I am currently working on restoring it right now. Just love these SAABs!

Had a lot of fun with this car. Not very fast but it handled well. I added a Porsche style wale tail which is pretty lame now but didn't seem like it at the time. Steering was awesome. Heated Seats. Sunroof. Great memories.
