For someone who isn't too saavy with vehichles, are saabs a good purchase? I'm checking out an ad for a 1999 9-3 SE for about $2000

130k miles
4 cylinder turbo
30+ mpg

The ad insists that he's taken very good care of oil changes and tune ups. It just passed inspection. I don't know what they are but the ad claims that the undercarriage and dog legs are spotless, saying that they're both common issues for Saabs, so im pretty inclined to trust the person.

There isn't anything wrong with it apparently, the only problem I've come across is that they might be expensive to fix and replace parts? or that it might be hard to find someone to work on it. Aside from that the car seems very nice, but I'm not sure if somehing newer would be better for the long-run. I'm not looking for anything fancy

Saabs aren't bad cars they were just terribly marketed with their far fetched comparisons to fighter jets and then when the company was purchased by GM it got ran into the ground.

9-3 is a solid commuter car and definitely more interesting than a 3k civic.

Nice and reliable but once something needs to be replaced you're going to spend more money then you bought the car for

The company is now defunct so finding parts will be an extraordinary hassle, unless you're an enthusiast of the brand, I would get something else.

Dont do it, you can find parts ok because of autozone/internet but theyll be expensive. And if you ever need a dealer-only service prepare that lube.
