The Saabs are great deals because the depreciation on them is huge. I have heard most of the horror stories - are there any opinions one way or the other from this automotively savvy crowd?
Most cars that depreciate quickly do so for good reason. Also, the rapid depreciation doesn't stop once you buy it. Dig down a little deeper and look at a Toyota Avalon.
