About the 2004 Saab 9-3
If you need a rental car, the 2004 Saab 9-3 is one option; this page explains the car and how booking works. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar.
Reading the spec sheet
Under the hood: the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo and front-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
A combined rating of 9.8 L/100 km works out to about 29 litres per 300 km. At our price setting, it costs about $15.19 to drive 100 km.
The 9-3 in everyday use
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. Luggage space is 425 litres, enough for a family's bags for a long weekend.
When the 9-3 makes sense
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.
In our fleet
None in our fleet right now; ask and we look for one for your dates. If you want this one, say so in the request; we confirm before you pay. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
From request to keys
You request the car online with your dates, and you pay nothing to send it. We review it and reply with an offer that shows the whole price, delivery included when you asked for it. You decide: approve and pay, or let it go. No charge either way until you approve.
The calendar on each car's page helps you pick dates that work. Need it longer than 365 days? Renew with a new agreement when the booking ends. Plan for at least 2 hours between sending the request and picking up the car.
What to bring
You need to be 18 or older at pickup, with an Ontario G2 or G licence valid for the whole rental. A young driver fee applies each day for drivers under 26. Your original licence, not a photo, comes with you to the handover.
Third-party liability is in the rate; for the car, bring OPCF 27, use your card's benefit, or add the CarmaCars Protection Plan. Each car shows its deposit, and we take it about 1 hour before pickup. Before confirming, we verify the licence and identity of each driver.
Your move
The quickest way to a price is a request with your dates. It costs nothing.
