So my girlfriend is in need of a new car and Im looking at a 1990 saab 900 turbo. Its in mint condition minus the fact that it needs a new exhaust system from the cat back and there are a few cracks in the dash. Does anyone have any experience with these cars? They seem to be quite reliable but tell me if Im wrong. Any general opinions? Thanks

G20: 93.5+ (with airbags, not motor belts) are very nice cars and many girls i know have, and love, them. 94/95/96 are stylish and slightly more up to date looking than earlier models. they are definately loaded and have good gas mileage.
plus, big back seat.
and you can pick up a 93.5 for sometimes as little as $2K in good condition.

Got rid of the WRX so my wife could get whatever she wanted.... She picked out a silver RX-8 fully loaded and said six speed or not at all. Little did she know that I had future plans for another bmw and this was paving the way for "I got rid of my wrx for you" and now we're both happy. btw she loved the rex more than I did.bmpr stkr: real racers go left and right... so tru

they have been described and i quote sport compact car mag "accelerates like an altima with the parking brake on..." my buddy has one in 5spd, and we raced it against this mazda 323 that we put ricer mods on, and the 323 won hands down... :roll:IG: @Baye30

I would buy her a 1995 525ia. very good, very reliable cars. I actually have one now, I love it.
The Saab 900 is a pretty good car, but since it is frot wheel drive, when the first little thing goes out just throw the car in the trash. $$$$$
I drove a 1992 Volvo 240 for a little more than a month, about 1200 miles. That thing was great. Smooth ride, 28 mpg, makes a u-turn inside what an e30 can do.
If your wife is concerned about apperance go with the '95 525. if not go for the volvo 240
