Nice car, low on power but would not consider for my self 9-3 I have driven various models, impressed with car generally, look forward to seeing the wagon and driving the v-6 although I am not sure that is needed 9-5 I have driven on several occasions. Very nice car, would consider wagon as next car 9-7 I have no interest, seems to fill a need It would be nice to see a hatchback again, would like to see better handling car, maybe awd, is the v-6 really needed, it is hard to believe that gas mileage would be as good as a four, would hate to see SAAB's go away, they should be a step above the other GM look alikes.

It would be nice to see a hatchback again, would like to see better handling car, maybe awd, is the v-6 really needed, it is hard to believe that gas mileage would be as good as a four, would hate to see SAAB’s go away, they should be a step above the other GM look alikes.

And that's all we have in Europe, ... , it's poor. Look at the offer of our competitors. It seems that GM doesn't want to or can't give Saab a decent future. They promised to make a new Saab every year, and this for 8 years in a row ... Yeah, right! A true Saab lover, driving them since I got my driving licence.
