wich you will get anywere else you go to fix your car ;) and it will be an indie who most likely not have the type of backing that a dealer will have from the factory. also its cheeper than alot of indies in the area IE $80perHr

and all the indies in the area get there parts from us

Our labor rate has been $65.00 for the last 3 years, and includes all ages of cars. For your area that is a very good rate for quality dealer work.

I always wind it amusing when indies advertize SAAB trained techs. how long ago have they been to SAAB training. I'm a SAAB trained Master Tech and haven't been to a training class since 1994

Thats a great dealer with great parts guys. My buddy was a tech there for some time. I bought a Scarabe Green 9k off a guy there stock except for SQR stage 3 and a TD04. wicked. Any word if the $69/hr. is in effect for everyone? I need my clutch done ASAP. I'll probably call 'em tomorrow.

I remember test driving a 9-5 there right before the introduction of the 9-2X. I asked the sales weasel whether he thought Saab would ever make an AWD car. He said... No, because AWD cars have lots of problems, especially Subarus.



I have neither enough face nor enough palm to adequately convey his failitude. That's the closest dealer to me by far, but I'll drive to Charles River Saab before setting foot there again. (plus, CRS sells parts for considerably less markup...)
