What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Saab 9-5
| Price of the Saab 9-5: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 220hp 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Huge depreciation of a 2004 with only 83K miles made this VERY affordable. |
| 2003 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 250hp 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
I bought mine used. These cars depreciate rapidly, so you can find bargains. |
| 2003 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 185hp 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
As a used car, a good saab can be a great deal. They depreciate badly, which makes them a great buy for the second owner. I bought mine at 3 years old for a little less than half of what the first buyer did, and it was in excellent condition. |
