Okay, Veeky Forums.

Getting a car. Want to get one used under $10k with low miles.

Here are some options I'm looking at.

2011 Saab 9-5
2000-2009 Saab 9-5 Aero
2000-2009 Saab 9-3 Aero Wagon
2004-2006 VW Phaeton V8
1997-2003 BMW 540i with the M-Sport package

Concerns are gas milage, reliability and maintenance cost.

Shut up and buy a civic for 3k.

2011 Saab 9-5

The older Saabs are sketchy, the Phaeton is a drain and so is the bimmer

every single one you listed is unreliable as fuck
>inb4 muh saab
ecotec in them are super shit and overall they aren't very reliable either

>2004-2006 VW Phaeton V8

Unless you have shitloads of money to spend on maintenance/repairs, don't do it.

No.

Please die.

Why are the older saabs sketchy?

Got anything to back it up?

>hurr durr i'm a poorfag but i want to be a special snowflake

You'll have plenty of time to be a special snowflake in the future when you have more money.

>wut car is gud

fuck off faggot

my ass
personal experience
the internet

i fucking hate saabs with passion

He actually came up with choices you turbonigger. Fuck off

I don't know if they're unreliable "as fuck" especialy if I pick one with under 80k miles as I plan to.

It looks so Nice though. No idea how to find out if a Phaeton Certified VW dealer is near me.

I have money. If I wanted to spend 20k on a car, I would probably just get a fiesta ST. I still think that buying a used car is more financially responsile.

Again, die in a fire.

Not facts. Try again.

Arnt there any used fiestas where you åt?

>phaeton w8

Fucking small time shit, go for the W12 you fucking faggot.

Get a Lexus,6cyl BMW, Mercedes or VAG you turbo faggot.

Saab is shit

>Cares about reliability and maintenance costs
>Posts a list of expensive, unreliable European shitheaps

Oh, man. I just looked on Craigslist in my area and found this.

cleveland.craigslist.org/cto/5658780902.html

85k miles, $2800 putting me $7k lower than I thought which I can just leave in a fund for maintenance. It's a little older than I ideally wanted and also an automatic though. I think this is also one of the model years that had sludging problems with non-synthetic oil.

Going to contact the seller and find out maintenace history.

There are, but 14k is the rock bottom price right now.

>lexus
Yeah, because I want to drive a warm bucket of paste. The only lexus I would ever consider buying is a 90s LS 400. Any post 1999 lexus is juat a fucking toyota with fake wood interior.

>Saab
Holy shit the Veeky Forums meme hit you hard m8

The estate versions look sexy af. Buy it op

Change PCV if it's not changed.

If you do look at it, remove the hose from the top and stick your finger in and dig some.
If you find chunks, it's probably gonna cost you since its most likely having sludge.

It says it have 185HP which is a lie then since Aero from 2001 have 230HP. This is just a 2.3t.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saab_9-5#Engines_2
Check em.
Don't get fooled.
The aero have larger disc brakes, different clutch and loads of other things to it with the added torque.

dumb dubs confirmed.

540i
most fun
best price/performance
slowest depreciation

Oh and it's an auto tragic.

>I have money. If I wanted to spend 20k on a car....

nigga your looking at used saabs

>Again, die in a fire.
maybe /r/cars is more your speed faggot

Found this now.

cleveland.craigslist.org/cto/5701479533.html

Not the aero, but it is a manual and because it's a boxer engine, I'm much less worried about maintenance and milage.

Literally a Subaru

I like Subarus.

>Weaker, more expensive, weaker still because of AWD, no torque.

Don't buy a dead brand OP

There's actually a saab specialty meanhic within 20 miles of my house.

>1997-2003 BMW 540i with the M-Sport package
>Concerns are gas milage, reliability and maintenance cost.

Nigga you do realize that BMW gets like 13 city and 20 highway right?

There are V8s that get better city mileage than it gets highway.

No, you try. Do your research.

Don't want to invade on this thread too much but since it is a used car thread I'm currently trying to sell my car but I'm not sure on how to do it. I was thinking I would go to a few different car dealers and see what they offer me on my car but any tips on selling a car that is 23 years old? In America fyi

>has 10k to spend
>wants a bunch of old POS's

there are so many great cars you can buy for 10k and you picked the most boring crappy cars i could think of for 10k

2 out of 5 are boring in that list are.
