The 1992 Saab 9000 for buyers
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 1992 Saab 9000 for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Thinking about the 1992 Saab 9000? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.
Recalls and complaints
A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.
Engine and fuel
The powertrain to know here is the 2.3L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
A combined rating of 11.8 L/100 km works out to about 35 litres per 300 km. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $182.90. The EPA estimates US$3,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Who it is for
It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
How big it is
As a large sedan, it is easy to drive and park in the city. Luggage space is rated at 680 litres: bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Rent it for a week first
Rent the 9000 first, and buy only if it fits your life. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.
Choosing the right one
Within the 1992 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
Running costs
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $182.90 at our price setting. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $18.29 in fuel.
Your move
Send a request to rent the model first, or ask us what we can do.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 1992 Saab 9000 from us first.
