Guess what we did...

Today we decided to use the opportunity of buying a car using GM's Employee Discount and we upgraded our 2004 Saab 9-3 Linear to a brand new 2005 Saab 9-5 Arc, it comes with tons of stuff, way more than what our 9-3 came with.

Re: Guess what we did...

Why lose all that money on depreciation when the car was not even 2 model years old? Was there something wrong with it? Was the 9-5 THAT much better?

well mr. negativity, you may have heard that we also have a sebring convertible that we received so we have 2 cars at our house plus my car and we were getting rid of the sebring and thought we may as well get rid of the saab and we got a great deal on the trade in and a great deal on the 9-5 so we thought hey, might as well, money isn't the issue, if we hadn't gotten the sebring then we would've kept the saab but once the sebring is gone, the car is paid off and we get extra cash in our pocket, and yes the 9-5 is a better car in every single way, it comes with leather, our saab had cloth, it has more power, more goodies and comes with a no charge option package which gives us the 9 speaker harmann kardon stereo, sunroof, power passenger seat, heated rear seats and ours came with the heated and air conditioned seats, it's a much better car and it will last us a long time, plus its roomier and more comfortable and better build quality, anyways we're so happy, it's a beautiful car and my moms a saab person and felt that she should treat herself to a better car
