The good thing is though that almost no-one in Europe will ever buy the BLS cause no-one wants to be seen in a Cadillac....

(And while we're at it, one Italian sandwich is a 'panino'.) Sheesh! One PM who is a Saab fan would be a ‘Saabista’.

That doesn't make sense. If the BLS is basically a regular 9-3, wouldn't a combi BLS simply be a modified 9-3 SportCombi? Maybe Cadillac is seeing the success of the SportCombi and is thinking they want a piece of that action. I hardly see how this might mean there might be a "crossover" (9-3X or otherwise) in the future.
