Thinking of buying the 2007 Saab 9-3?
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2007 Saab 9-3 for sale by us right now. Here is what to know about the 2007 Saab 9-3 before buying one.
What to check on the 9-3
Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Owners filed 155 complaints with NHTSA, most often about air bags, suspension and engine; have those parts checked. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
What the specs mean
It is powered by the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo, with front-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Its combined rating is 10.9 L/100 km, which means roughly 33 litres for 300 km. A 300 km weekend costs about $57.24 in energy at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,800 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Room inside
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. In plain terms, its 850 litres of luggage space hold bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Who the 9-3 suits
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
Rent it for a week first
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent the 9-3 for a week and see how it fits your life. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.
The cost of driving it
The EPA estimates US$3,800 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $19.08 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $190.80 at our price setting.
Choosing the right one
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
Still deciding?
Rent it for a week, then decide: send a request with your dates.
Rent it for a week before you buy
