there's another one but i forget... :unsure:

saabnet is the other one, but they are more like brickboard

I can't beat on them too much though because I found my aero there, they have a really good classifieds and maintinence section

and gregg does your car have the trionic-7 engine or the trionic 5 engine? Either way, bring the car to 300hp and call it a day...

just to clarify, my new car is a 2000 Saab 9-3 SE 5-door hatchback. Silver w/ black leather interior w/ every option but OnStar and cd changer, including front & rear heated seats, power moonroof, "premium" audio (though it still sounds like crap), leather sport steering wheel, leather seats, foglights, etc. The SE also has the High Output engine (again, still kinda weak) that produces 205HP and 209 ft-lb, a little bit sportier/firmer suspension than the standard 9-3, and a ground effects kit to make it seem not so high off the ground.

Anyways, looking back, I overpaid for it and I don't really like the car, but whatever. I'll make it look good and take care of it for the short time that I have it and try to recoup as much of my investment as possible when I sell it next year. I'll have to get pics up if I don't end up coming to this meet.

My Kid has a '00 9-5 2.3L LPT 5 spd wagon. Here's some "issues" we've had

DI (direct ignition) cassette failure. My Son's car is covered under a recall (phew!)

ABS unit failures (just got this one back from a rebuild)

SIDS display pixel failure. This one just plain sucks. $230 + the unit must be "married" to the car

Climate Control malfunction. A part breaks in the heater box, resulting in NO HEAT for the driver

SLUDGE! Saab extended the warraty's to 8 years, to cover engine damage due to sludge build-up, which cause low oil pressure...My kid's car has no sludge issues. Run synthetic oil, change it often!
