It’s been a turbulent year for Saab, but thankfully it hasn’t stopped them from making exciting cars with a jet fighter pedigree.  Their latest creation is this, the 2011 Saab 9-5 sedan.

This latest version of the 9-5 has been completely redesigned from the outgoing 2009 model.  Blacked out A and B pillars give the windshield a wraparound look, and helps the 9-5 to look leaner.  It isn’t a small car – the 9-5 is longer than most of its rivals by four or five inches, but it wears the extra inches well thanks to its sleek design.  Standard exterior features on the 9-5 include side mirrors with integrated LED turn signal indicators, rear LED lighting, fog lamps, and 17-inch alloy wheels.  18- and 19-inch wheels are available as options, as are bi-xenon cornering headlights.

The 2011 9-5 spreads features across four trim levels.  The Turbo4 and Turbo4 premium trims are equipped with a 220-horsepower, turbocharged 2.0-liter in-line four-cylinder that is mated to a six-speed manual or automatic, and feature front wheel drive.  Moving up to the Turbo6 XWD and Aero trims nets you a few more benefits, most notably a 300-horsepower, turbocharged 2.8-liter V-6.  Power runs through a six-speed automatic to Saab’s Cross Wheel Drive (XWD) system.  EPA fuel ratings are 17 mpg in the city and 27 mpg on the highway.  The 2011 9-5 squares off against other midsize luxury sedans like the Audi A6, BMW 5-series, and Acura TL.

Inside, the cockpit of the 2011 9-5 will feel familiar, yet new.  It keeps traditional Saab touches like the driver leaning dash, joystick vents, and console mounted ignition, and adds your choice of black or parchment leather upholstery (gray is available on the Aero as well).  The 9-5 is also filled with convenience features like a cooled glove box, auto-dimming rearview mirror, a 60/40 split rear seat, and a dual-zone climate control system, all of which come standard.  Other standard interior features include a USB and auxiliary audio input jack for MP3 player connectivity, Bluetooth® connectivity, steering wheel audio controls, and a universal remote garage door opener.  A navigation system, tri-zone climate control, and a rear seat entertainment system are optional.

The 2011 9-5 also incorporates a long list of safety features, so you can feel secure while driving.  Active front head restraints, side curtain and side-impact airbags for both rows, antilock brakes, electronic stability, and traction control all come standard.  Optional safety features include a parking assist system and a head-up display which projects pertinent information onto the windshield so the driver can keep their eyes on the road.

Saab’s cars have always been unique, a departure from the norm.  And the 2011 9-5 is no exception.  With sleek styling, turbocharged power, and that feeling you only get from a Saab, it’s quite a package.

"...This was my first time buying a new car, and I really didn't know where to start. I used your site to get quotes from dealers near me and compared them to the Market Price. Then, I used the knowledge I got from reading your Secrets book to make sure I didn't pay more than I should. It was so easy! I love my new car!"

*Incentive programs are subject to change at any time by the manufacturer.

Secret 1
Consumer Incentives

Zero percent financing, employee discount, cash back, out-the-door price tags...

Most dealers work hard to offer the public competitive prices. These incentives can grab your attention, but they can also obscure the actual terms you're getting on your purchase.

How can you fully understand incentives to get the lowest possible price on your car?

Secret 2
Finance & Insurance

Most state franchise laws prohibit manufacturers from selling cars directly to the public, so the dealer will be your middleman. But in terms of financing and insurance, you can choose a bank or the dealer directly.

How can you determine what's in your best interest?

Secret 3
Additional Costs

Destination charges, taxes, license and title fees, advertising fees... When going to a dealership, you must ask for an explanation of any fee you don't understand. But you need to choose your battles wisely. Your local car dealer may have taken a loss or slim profit along the way, and your fighting over something like a doc fee when the deal is nearly wrapped up may be counterproductive.

In any case, there are many fees and charges in the sale process: some inevitable, others questionable. How do you tell them apart?

Secret 4
Trade-in Value

If you currently own a car, it probably represents profit. The question is, whose profit will it be?

With few exceptions, you'll get the most money for your used car by selling it privately. That's because dealers pay wholesale prices — not retail prices — for used cars, and they sell them at retail.

Your current car's value can be used to lower the price on your new car. However, most people underestimate their used car's value when going to a dealership. How can you maximize your value?

Secret 5
Dealer Holdback

The car manufacturer holds back a fraction of the price of all vehicles the dealership sells. Then, it returns the money to the dealership, usually on a quarterly basis.

Dealer holdback began its life as a safety net that ensured the manufacturers would have a security deposit of sorts if a dealership missed payments, and the dealerships would have money on hand to cover overhead costs when the holdback was returned.

How can you take advantage of dealer holdbacks to get the bottom line price?

Secret 6
Dealer Incentives

Unlike consumer incentives, dealer incentives are factory-to-dealer incentives that reduce the dealer's true cost to buy the vehicle from the factory to below invoice.

Manufacturers offer these incentives on a regional basis to generate sales on specific models. These incentives are sometimes referred to as "spiffs," and they can touch off competition among dealers to move slower-selling stock.

For instance, a dealer incentive may kick in when a certain sales target is reached, with each subsequent sale resulting in a higher factory-to-dealer rebate. How can you benefit from that?
