what do you think about the 2004 saab 9-3 linear?

[Stevo]

i have been looking to buy my first car for a while now, and finally found a great deal on a 2004 saab 9-3 linear. its a great looking car with low mileage, i just want to know how reliable and well-made it is?

thanks, if anyone actually has this car please tell me how you like it!!

the thing about saab 9-3 is that prior to the year 2004 ( 2003 and older on non hatchback ) it wasn't very reliable , in 2004 they did a major upgrade and improved a lot on stability of the vehicle and also safety so it is save to say that you're lucky u didnt choose a year older and to have come across the 04 model. the car however is not really from saab anymore and i am sure you are well aware of that but it doesnt mean that it will break down
