My Mother In-law bought a 07 Saab 9/3 2.0T I tried to get her into a new legacy sedan, but she didnt like the feel of the seats. She has back issues. Well I tried to add another family member into the subaru club, but I lost.

Anyone here have experience good or bad with Saabs.

There are a lot of old ones out there, so i would imagine them as being a good car, here is a consumer report on those though. sorry about the format, that's how it copied.

Saab uses some of the best seats in the auto industry. I can understand your mother-in-law's preference based upon seat comfort and support.

We rent cars on weekends when necessary to work on our svx. The Subaru Baha seats was atrocious but no worse than a lot of other brands.
The SVX seats are the best for our poor old backs by far of any car we have been in!

My dad has a 9-5. Aside from the fact that he really liked it, my mother, who had real problems with seating , really liked the seats. power adjustable on passenger and driver sides.

Great quality control & finish. Dealership a and reliability A1 so far 3+ years.

I really enjoy SVX seats

I find them comfortable when driving, unlike some seats that get harder longer you sit in them

Maybe you should have talked her into a 9/2x.

Does Saab put their own seats in those? Or is it just a leather covered Imprezza seat?

I know they are different from the WRX seats, but I don't know if they are Saab seats or if they are just more cushy Subie seats :-)

Oh, and one Z in Impreza

I'm pretty sure they're Saab seats. They have the active head restraints.
