A safe, solid, convertible with all the luxury items found in higher end brand names

by Chris_Porter
Oct 23 '04 - Updated Oct 24 '04 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Styling, interior, 8-way heated power leather seats w/ memory, easy-to-use controls
Cons: Gas mileage, off-the-line power, electrical glitches (interior), insufficient cup holders
The Bottom Line: Buy one as an alternative to a BMW, Lexus, or Mercedes. All the frills, but won't leave you broke.

My girlfriend was practically frothing at the idea of owning a luxury convertible (she had never owned one, and it had always been a life's dream of hers), so I started researching models based on price, options, and reliability. We weren't keen on the ...

Why I Love My 1996 Saab 900S Convertible

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Looks Great, Great Gas Mileage, Automatic Top, A Lot of Car for the Money
Cons: Lacking Performance of a Turbo, Expensive Repairs (but only when necessary!)
The Bottom Line: Buying a quality used Saab is a great car... safe, reliable, looks great (1996 body style is similar to current models!), and well worth the money!

When I first purchased my Saab in 2000, I knew I wanted a convertible, and I had been looking at other luxury vehicles such as the BMW 5 series and Mercedes roadsters. I quickly came to the conclusion that I couldn't see spending $20K+ on a used...

Year round convertible fun!

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: 30 mpg Turbo. Convertible fun that is great in the snow too.
Cons: Not as high performance as some in the price range.
The Bottom Line: Great year round fun.

I just purchased my second Saab 900 turbo convertible. The first was a 1991. I got my 1996 on a sweetheart deal because people just don't seem to know the value of a Saab. My dark green 1996 900 SE Turbo convertible was $4000.00. The body and ...

The Convertible With Personality GREAT CAR
by jazzperk  
Nov 24 '03 
Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 
Pros: Ragtops are fun in the summer and cozy in the winter.
Cons: WIsh I was 20 years younger
When I was in high school I had a 1964 Austin Healy 3000, I sure enjoyed that car and never got ragtops out of my system.
Now I am 50 and married with 2 children and have a 1996 900S convertible with 117,000 miles. I have had one other saab convertible and it too was a great car. These cars are really well made and they are fun to drive. The 900 is a solid car that has a great history. How many other car companies use to make airplanes? There is also the "not everyone has one" factor. This car is very comfortable and has too many great features to list.
