@@TheSwedishCarGuy All Saab review is expected :) Yes, I am looking for old Saab 900, as my first youngtimer, but is not easy, not too much on the market in Poland...Anyway, I wish Saab will reborn some day, and remain as a fully Swedish brand, General Motors stay away from these jets ! 😀
@@aleksanderswiderski261 yeah hopefully later a Saab 93 viggen also coming ;) the owner just need to let me know when he can so :) ah I had one Saab 900 in the family so, a good first car :) yeah I totally agree on you with that! had a good weekend?
Great video! I have two SAAB 93s (2.0t 175 hp / 2.8L V6 255 hp). I live in Mexico, this is not an ordinary car here, most of the people when they see the SAAB they approach it. They sure think what car is that :)
this is the first time i have actually heard my car from the outside. didnt realise how amazing my car actually sounds. and this review is pretty spot on, word for word how i felt about my own. never had car love til i got my 93 aero.
I was waiting for 4 years to have the cash and find one here in Hungary... just when I wanted to buy an Opel Insignia OPC (same 2.8 engine, but 325HP AWD) suddenly a 2006 SAAB 9-3 black sedan, 2.8 V6 FWD, in mint condition, with a Stage 1 MapTun popped up on used cars app... What I wanted to spend on the OPC half of it was enough to buy the SAAB... my 4th SAAB... I do miss the turbo lag of the 2.3 litre 4 pot of the 9-5 Aero I had, but this car is scary! I consider myself a modest driver, I only do things I'm 200% sure I can handle... I went 230 km/h with this car on the highway, it is amazing how it always has some reserve power.... even when you start to floor at 160 km/h it pulls like a motherf**er.... the turbo is not like on older SAABs it sound like a damn airplane turbine :D if you love the brand and can quench the petrol thirst of this beast.. by all means, buy it! ;)
@@TheSwedishCarGuy Plans? Always! Finishing plans? Not so much. :D If we talk about performance, the current almost 300 HP is more than enough for me... I like to see the faces of teenagers in Bimmer 320d-s and VW Golf MK IV-s.... Kids here think that a lowered car, with bigger rims and a roaring exhaust = performance... of course other times I get swooshed away by some premium AMG Mercs, Audi RS whatevers and BMW M performance giants... so in terms of performance in the long run I wish to do the do88 Intercooler with the metal pipes, maybe get an open air intake (currently have a K&N filter in the stock box) and my biggest dream is to put a bigger turbo on the beast. As far as I know, I don't need to change any engine parts up to 400 HP so changing to a bigger turbo and fine tuning the ECU shouldn't be such a nightmare... I also want to change every strut (maybe springs also), because being a 2006 car I kinda hear a lot of knocking from the back, when going through potholes and I want to grab the road like a good car should. I already have some fine brand new tyres for this season and the previous owner upgraded the breaks, so all in all I think suspension needs my attention, then we can talk about whats under the hood again :)
@@Revoluciona41475 bhp at the crank on a top tune , auto box not manual...is fine.... I have the auto aero ! Have plans to fit an insignia vxr turbo and injectors along with f.m i c . Alloys and brakes too .
@@TheSwedishCarGuy I’m thinking an exhaust obviously, than maybe a cold air intake, I’m gonna lower it and get some rims that match and look good on the car (although I can’t think of any good rims to have on it) and I’ll just go from there really.

Great car and video but MAN do not clutch-in gear while still on the throttle. I know the Aero clutch will work great to +- 400nm of torque, but you are shaving some precious material every time you use the clutch while still pressing the gas pedal.
Hello all. I am new to SAABs and been researching the car. I have read many positive and enthusiastic reviews for the SAAB 9-3 AERO and other people ignore it and call it a Chevy because it supposedly has a lot of GM parts. Do SAAB 9-3 AERO have any Torque Steer? What are your thoughts? Would you buy the SAAB 9-3 AERO over a Toyota Camry? Thanks.
Hey :D First of all thanks for commenting :) Yes do might have a little, I didn't feel so much. I do love the Saab 9-3 aero, such a great car despite its age and if you maintain them they are amazing :) Toyota camry is one of the best selling cars of all time tho, I think the camry is good but kinda dull. it depend if you want a sporty car or a dull car in my opinion, no matter what I wish you a great week and day ahead also :)
Är så mycket mer än den ser ut, de beskriver alla dessa gm2.8 v6 turbon, köpte en vectra för 15000kr o den är ju inte direkt snygg o har inte något värre ljud förräns man klämmer ordentligt på gasen o 280-290 hästar drar iväg😍
I owned a 2006 Aero (2.8). It was a reasonably fun car to drive, but the quality was wretched. From the day I bought it, there was always something wrong. Worse, despite its upmarket price, it wasn’t sold at dealerships that were interested in providing service accordingly.
