Pros: What do you like about 2009 Saab 9-3?
I own the Sport Combi version of the 9-3.
I like the classic lines of this car as it will still look good 10 years from now.
Performance-wise it has very adequate acceleration and is a nice highway cruiser.
Cons: How would you improve 2009 Saab 9-3?
Limited rear passenger leg room. Anyone over 6 foot tall or long legs will have issue here.
The auto transmission has a funny shift from second to third,... not as smooth as I'd like it.
2009 Saab 9-3 Review:
I've been a Saab owner/driver since 1986. The '09 9-3 Sport Combi is my 4th Saab.
Do your maintenance and you can drive these cars for well over 100K miles. Not only are they safe but on the "funfactor" scale of 1-10, this car earns a 10 easily.
Like I tell my friends, not everyone will like a Saab but if you're going to put down $25-35K for a car, you owe it to yourself to test drive one. I did back in 1986 and I've been hooked ever since!

2009 Saab 9-3 Review:
GM killed the Saab brand. GM is a finance company, not a car company anymore. Saab needs to be rescued by people who can actually manage building a car company.
