The 2006 Saab 9-2: before you buy
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2006 Saab 9-2 for sale by us right now. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. The 2006 Saab 9-2 for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
What to check on the 9-2
In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
What the figures tell you
The 2.5L 4-cylinder with all-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. It runs on regular gas. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.
It is rated 10.7 L/100 km combined: about 32 litres every 300 km. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $16.59 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,050 a year for 15,000 miles.
Practical details
As a wagon, it has the length of a car with a bigger load space at the back. The trunk holds 680 litres by the EPA's count: bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Who the 9-2 suits
It suits people who want car handling with extra load space. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
A longer test drive
Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. A week with the 9-2 answers more than any brochure. Rent the 9-2 first, and buy only if it fits your life.
The cost of driving it
The EPA estimates US$3,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $16.59 in fuel.
Picking a year and a trim
Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.

Rent it for a week before you buy
