As Saab’s flagship car, the 2009 Saab 9-5 continues to offer a robust turbo engine, unique Swedish styling, and a wealth of innovative features.

Available in three levels – 2.3T, Aero and Griffin Edition – the 9-5 is available as a four-door sedan or SportCombi wagon. The standard 2.3-liter, 260-horsepower 4-cylinder turbocharged engine has rapid acceleration and excellent passing power. The standard five-speed Sentronic automatic transmission allows you to manually shift gears with steering wheel buttons, while the optional five-speed manual gearbox lets you rip through the gears with zeal. Standard front-wheel drive offers excellent handling in all weather conditions. Aero models feature a lowered, sport-tuned chassis for excellent control and tight handling. The 9-5 gets great fuel economy with 17-18 mpg in the city and 27 mpg on the highway and competes with the Acura TL, Volvo S60 and Lincoln MKZ.

Inside, an optional DVD-based Navigation System includes turn-by-turn directions, detailed maps, and a trunk-mounted 6-disc CD changer for the best guide on your journey. The standard Harman/Kardon audio system features 200 watts of power, nine speakers, and an MP3-compatible auxiliary input jack for an excellent audio experience. Standard leather-appointed sport seats offer excellent lateral support and comfort; while 8-way power heated front seats with memory help you find the perfect driving position. The optional Visibility Package includes aerodynamic Xenon High-Intensity Discharge headlamps for enhanced illumination, the Saab Parking Assistance system, and auto-dimming/power folding outside mirrors.

Safety features include 4-wheel disc brakes with power assist and an Anti-lock Braking System with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution for excellent stopping power and fade-free performance. A standard Electronic Stability Program and Traction Control System offers balanced handling and control during evasive maneuvers, and minimal wheelspin on slippery roads. Standard adaptive dual front airbags and seat-mounted side head/torso airbags offer enhanced passenger protection in a collision. A standard tire pressure monitoring system constantly monitors pressure and alerts the driver to any changes in inflation.

Saab’s slogan “Born From Jets” is spot-on when it comes to turbo power, unique styling, and a wealth of safety features and amenities that make the 2009 Saab 9-5 an enticing choice in the midsize luxury car market.

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?

Get our free quote, and we'll tell you the secret.

 

 

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?

Get our free quote, and we'll tell you the secret.

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?

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?
