With only 80k miles and in overall excellent condition, this Saab is a perfect car! Buy with confidence and enjoy! Saab is no gimmick auto manufacturer. With the parent company being an aircraft manufacturer, you will find these cars to be well thought out, streamlined, aerodynamic, and many automotive features pioneered by Saab. This is the Saab 9.5 Aero and the highest performing, most well equipped model available. This Aero comes with more robust suspension to handle the power produced by an engine turbocharged to within an inch of its life. With the added boost it makes hp and 258 foot-pounds, hot stuff indeed. It has a traction control system that helps on dry pavement, and even more on the wet. The 9-5 also has a stability control system. At first glance, this Car is a Looker. I personally LOVE driving this car!!

EXTERIOR: The Exterior of this Saab is just Awesome! It is a Bright Silver Color. The Paint is in overall Excellent Condition. I do not see any indications of paint or body work and the Carfax is clean and clear, too. The Bright Silver Body Exterior combines with Black Leather Interior which is a really nice color combination. This car looks sharp and turns heads.

The silver paint is shiny and glossy! The overall consistency of color really adds to the appeal of this car. This Saab is riding on a set of beautiful 17” alloy wheels with like new tires. The tires are in great condition and just passed VA State Safety Inspection. This Saab comes with Park Assist. When backing up, it will sound a series of beeps to indicate your proximity to items. This is super helpful is so many circumstances. From city parallel parking, back out of a parking lot parking space, pulling in or out of your car, or even avoiding unknown objects, parking assist is super useful! The Headlights are clear and you also get a built in license plate holder. With 10/2011 inspection, this car is ready to go! I noticed last night when driving this car that it has Rain Sensitive Front Wind Shield Wipers. I was driving and as it started to drizzle, the wipers came on by themselves and adjusted for the amount of rain. It was a little startling at first, but really cool once I realized that is an upgrade on this car. The rear of this Saab looks cool, too! The depth of the rear trunk and the bumper adds to the appeal of this sedan. You will find there is the Saab emblem in the middle. There is a stationary antennae on the roof. There is a built in license plate holder here. Overall, the Exterior Condition of this 9-5 is in Excellent Condition. I do not see any indications of body work. For a vehicle of this age and mileage it looks really good. The only thing I can mention on this car is just usual light wear. You may find some typical road rash chips on the hood, some wear on the lower front spoiler/air grill area, and the roof mounted antenna shows some wear. I did not find anything else noteworthy or obvious or atypical for the year and miles. I cannot find any noteworthy dents or scratches. This car just looks great! INTERIOR: Inside this Saab you will find to be in Great Condition. Overall, the interior looks, smells and feels just great. You will find the inside to be in near perfect, excellent, much better than average condition. The Interior is Black Leather and the dash is coordinating Black and Gray! All interior trim pieces, dash, and the like are a combination of gray and black. The seat upholstery is soft black leather. This Sedan features All Power Front Seats and Heated Front and Rear Seats. The front seats are individual sport bucket style seats. These seats are very comfortable with high backs, solid moldings, and large supportive seat bottoms. Both front seats are multi point power adjustable with recline. Both front seats are also Multi Point Heated. There are controls for both front seats on the dash. Beneath the radio are 3 way heat adjustments. The driver’s seat has 3 way memory settings. So, you can set your seating preferences once and always ride in the same comfort. Both front seats also power height adjustable. The rear set is surprisingly roomy. You can seat 3 more adults back here. There is a lot more leg and head room that I expected back there! I rode in the back seat personally for over an hour and was surprisingly comfortable. The rear seat is heated, too. There is a dial on the back of the center console that adjusts the rear seat heat. There are dual headrests for the rear seat, too. For added safety and comfort, there is a center passenger three point seat belt. This shoulder and lap combination adds comfort and safety. There is a fully power Sunroof with retractable sunshade. There is a single, overhead button that will vent the sunroof, or open it completely. The retractable sunshade allows you to let the sun shine in through the glass panel roof without any wind. This rear bench will fold down for more cargo space. It is a 60/40 split bench that will flip down in two pieces. The back seat features a center arm rest that will flip down for added rider comfort. There are two cup holders that flip out from this rear arm rest. There is also a rear seat ski boot pass through. This allows you to put snow skis in the trunk and they will pass through into the back seat instead of having to strap them to the roof. The carpets and front floor mats are also dark gray. You will not find any rips, tears, holes or burns inside this Saab. The inside smells good. I do not smoke, and am allergic to smoke, and do not smell any linger smoke smell in this car. I believe this Saab to be a non smoker. There is not pet odor either and no small hairs to indicate that animals have ever ridden in this car. Inside this Saab, you will find lots of surprises and upgrades. In addition to the heated front and rear seats, you will find On Star, Power Windows, with Driver 1 Touch Auto Power Up and Down, Keyless Entry, Cruise Control, Climate Control. You will find all the writing on the instrument knobs to be bright and clear. All of the digital displays are in excellent condition, too, there is no pixilation on the displays. This is important to mention since it is a common issue in many Saabs and the excellent condition of these digital displays is special and unique. The sound system in this Saab features the factory Harmon Kardon Upgrade so it sounds great! You will find this factory system to have an in dash CD, Cassette, and AM FM Radio. The radio sounds great, the speakers are crisp and clear. There is a factory HK amplifier. The Digital Display for the radio looks perfect. There are also wheel controls for the radio. No need to divert your attention away from the road while adjusting the music. This is another feature I don’t know how much I enjoy and use until I have to drive a car without Also, in this radio display area, this Saab features a Driver’s Information Center. You can monitor all sorts of data right from this display. It will calculate and display all sorts of information including, but not limited to, external temperature, miles to empty, average mpg, etc. You can also input a destination and the car will track how far/long until arrival. It is very cool and useful! This Saab also features On Star. This is GM’s communication system that is full of features. You can place phone calls, get directions, monitor your vehicle service history, etc. It will notify first respondents if it is alerted to an accident. On Star does require it’s own subscription membership. There are also power door locks and remote keyless entry with integrated key fob. With this remote entry you can lock, unlock and even pop the trunk from afar. There is Cruise Control, we tested and it works perfectly. There is a stalk on the steering wheel, left side, that controls the speed control. This Saab has Climate Control. On the front dash, there are controls where you can set the automatic climate control, or over ride that and manually adjust the heating or cooling. There is AC that blows cold and the heat is cozy. The exterior side view mirrors are also power adjustable from the driver's door. From the driver’s door, you can adjust the power mirrors. The gas door and trunk remote release buttons are here on the bottom next to the cubby for storage. You also get chrome door handles which look really sharp against the Gray and Black Interior. The center console has controls for all of the power windows and the door locks. The ignition is also located here on the center console. This is an interesting location for the ignition that adds a little extra flare to the appeal and fun of this sedan. This center ignition location is more ergonomically friendly and consumer appealing than one on the steering column. Steering column locations have become dominant because it is easier and cheaper for the manufacturers. But leave it so Saab to focus on driver and consumer comfort over cutting costs. The center console also has a padded armrest which opens up for even more storage. The padding on the armrest is super comfortable, so much so, I took notice right away. The top of the armrest will slide forward for custom comfort. I notice this because I am so short, being able to slide the armrest top forward lets me use it while driving. On the rear view mirror is a digital display. It displays the direction traveling. External Temperature displays on the radio face display area. The glove box houses the owner's manual. The glove box is lockable for added safety and security. The Overall Interior of this Car is Near Perfect. This car really Looks, Smells, and Feels Great! You may notice a little wear on the leather surfaces, but it is not rips or tears, it is just usual, very light wear. There are no rips, no holes, and no significant imperfections on the inside of this car. The passenger side seat is missing one adjustment knob cover, but it still functions easily and perfectly. Overall the Interior of this Saab 9.5 Aero Turbo Sedan is well equipped and in better condition than I would expect. I usually see more wear and tear on a 2003 model car. This is a great car for anyone. You may find a little usual wear, but if your expectations are realistic you will be pleasantly surprised. Driving Impressions: This Saab 9.5 Turbo drives just perfectly! I have driven this car since the day it traded in, and in the office we bicker over who is going to drive it. We have driving this car extensively and it performs just great! We took it in for VA State Safety Inspection, had new brakes installed and so, it is ready to ride and enjoy! This car offers incredible gas mileage of 22-30 Miles Per Gallon so it is sporty and practical! This car does not drive like a normal sedan. The turbo adds a boost of driving appeal and performance that is amazing. I actually find myself surprised at how quick and responsive this car is. Around town, on the highway, and everywhere in between, this Saab delivers superior drivability. This is one of the first cars in a long time that I am having a hard time selling. I really just want to keep this car for myself! Sheer excellence is evident in the first moments behind the 9-5’s wheel. The 9-5 is larger than the 9-3 series, and even 2 inches longer than a comparable BMW 5 series. The 9-5 sedans deliver an appealing and sophisticated highway experience that stresses comfort. Nearly everything about these cars qualifies as super smooth. The Aero produces a largely absorbent ride. It handles with precise control and runs with alluring quietness. The Aero takes acceleration to an even loftier level. The Automatic-transmission operation is flawless. As far as safety goes, this Saab is a top choice. Saabs have a rep for safety, and the 9-5 upholds it. The government ran one into a wall at 35 mph and the results weren't pretty, but they were reassuring. The 9-5 got top marks (five stars) for its protection of passenger and co-pilot. Front seat passenger do have head-and-torso side air bags in addition to the two front. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has a tougher drill - they run cars into an offset, yielding barrier at 40 mph, so there's a great deal more kinetic energy involved. Here, too, the 9-5 got top marks and was named a "best pick" in the midsize luxury class, along with five competitors. Under The Hood: This Saab comes with the Turbo, Inline 4 Cylinder Engine. This car is surprisingly peepy and fun to drive. When you hit the gas pedal, this car responds! The 140 cubic inch engine produces 250 horse power at 5,300 rpm and 258 foot pounds of torque at 1,920 rpm. This is a DOHC, Dual Overhead Cam, Engine. The 18.5 gallon gas tank combines with mpg of 22-30 allowing you to drive and drive between fill ups. This car is the perfect combination of fun and function!
