Saab 9-3 2.0T Convertible - Elegance at its finest

[@martiniv8924]

I have had over 120 cars over the years, I was looking for a cheap car in 2010, looked at a Passat and BMW 320, and found a Saab 93 1.9tid , a 2008 model , it blew my mind how it drove, a one day journey over a 1,000 miles , the seats are incredible, yes, no comparison too it’s original vectra chassis .

[@jmgarcia61]

Just about to start the restoration on a 2007 Aero convertible! Very fun watching.

[@DrivenbyDrivers]

Thanks. They are absolutely worth restoring and being kept on the roads 🙂

[@guitarlover302]

just finished mine after 6 years -although are you ever finished 😂😊

[@DrivenbyDrivers]

Haha that is so relatable 😂

[@DingDong-tj9ce]

Fantastic looking car...very special brand.

[@PeterRichards-dt9ct]

It’s a long way to say Saab 9-3 are good,and the cabriolet is the best all round drive I have ever had.

On my 4th now Aero convertible petrol manual 6 speed. So tuneable.... Spares plentiful Love the way you can log on with vin Number and see the original factory Build spec and options. Love the way you can add items Like auto dim rear mirror Folding mirrors, factory sat nav. Mine has sport chassis with maptun Springs. These factory detuned engines are solid.... And for £100 I get a remap That gives an extra 60 horses. Crazy to think it's so much car For such little money.

[@DrivenbyDrivers]

They are absolutely great platforms for tuning and oem customizing, as well as that they are such great drivers and relaxed cruisers.

Saab is not dead at all! But it might kill you, Saab is currently building the Grippen jet fighter and is developing other weapons and military equipment ;) back to their roots again. Love your socks!

SAAB FOREVER ❤️

[@guitarlover302]

Have a 2005 Aero convertible - re mapped to 280bhp - drives much better on Bilstein shocks - also has Maptune exhaust 👌

Considering buying an Aero in fantastic lime colour--filled with rainwater in recent thunderstorms here in Spain--dealer drying out and looking for new doors seals!

[@caractacusbrittania7442]

Door seals are normally good for years, It will be leaking from the pollen filter housing. Take off wiper arms, remove black scuttle panel, and you will see the filter housing in a vertical position. Remove filter, unbolt plastic housing, on the back you will see a crumbles felt seal, scrape it off, clean the area where it fits, use a generous bead of sikoflex or tekoflex sealant, not silicone as that will fail in a few months. Refit all and your problem will dissappear. Remember your carpets have one inch deep foam, with indented channels, It will take a lot of drying out to get rid of it. Also remember when you took the filter housing off, you could see through the hole the heater blower motor, that will have had water on it, spray it with something like wd 40.

Nice video, and if they asked you what it was about, you can just tell them *I was just chillin one sunny afternoon in my Saab* and your video captured it perfectly! (If they didn't know what chillin meant....) I have an earlier model, yet I still look at the occasional Saab (very rare now that it's 2022)

[@DrivenbyDrivers]

We're guessing Saab owners are always relaxed in their cars. Are we correct?

[@cosmosk8s]

I have a 2007 saab 93 aero convertible, really looking to do a muffler delete but not sure where to start when it comes to buying parts kind of new with the whole car thing. But guess you gotta start somewhere

[@anthonypinelli7640]

how is the reliability?

[@joostmeijerink4668]

Rijden jullie op de Posbank?

[@DrivenbyDrivers]

Klopt, in deze video wel

[@vazza7504]

Boss video but could you not paint your home ceiling before next vid, all that paint on your shirt will be all over the seat!!!!!!! :-)

[@DrivenbyDrivers]

This made me laugh so hard!

[@johnadams9044]

You could have just posted a text of the history lesson you provided. This is NOT a review or explanation of driving the 9--3 convertible.

[@DrivenbyDrivers]

Thanks John, we really appreciate your valuable feedback.

[@supersaabclaire]

Could you not just enjoy it instead of complaining 😏

[@antech555]

Video absolutely pointless. Found myself forwarding through most of it. Please cover what the car is all about. Technical side. What makes it Elegance at its finest.

[@DrivenbyDrivers]
