Check out real-world situations relating to the Saab 9-5 2012 here, particularly what our experts have to say about them.

SAAB 9/5: Is it a good car?
Poor reliability, a nearly non-existent support network, bloated styling, terrible on-road performance, and no resale value all combine to give you the full Saab 9-5 experience. You would be better off putting your money in a bag and setting fire to it than buying a second-hand Saab. While some people love their Saabs I find them as appealing as eating a hamburger made of broken glass and battery acid.
