Someone call Toyota on this….

A good find here from Sorbus in Sweden.
I hope when the design forums like Car Design news etc discuss this car they call it for what it is - a flat out compact copy of the Saab 9x.

I don’t know about you, but I’ve sort of had enough of Japanese and Korean car [...]

9000 Aero lovin - Part 3

The final 9000 entry is with us, and it’s PG’s 9000 Aero, shot in the open country around Bozeman, Montana.
This car also featured as a SOTW calendar model last year.
Thanks for the pics, PG, and thanks to everyone who participated in the month of 9000 lovin. It’s been a hoot.

Friday 13th, a Suzuki, a Saab and one wrecked BMW.

Spare a thought for Olav, in Norway. Olav always signs off his emails to me as “Olav, who always takes the long road home”. Thus is his enjoyment for driving. Olav’s got a very nice 9-5 wagon and I didn’t know it up until recently, but he’s also a biker as well. [...]

9000 Aero lovin 2

The month of 9000 love is rapidly coming to an end (6 hours to go here in Oz) but I’ve received a few late entries.
I wrote yesterday about Nevitz trading his 9-2x in and getting a 9-3 SportCombi, something he’d been thinking of for a while and was quite excited about. Well, this is [...]

MY2008 Saab 9-3 Snippets

As was noted by ctm in comments a few days ago and here on the site several times, press kits for the new Saab 9-3 range are due to go out to the mainstream motoring press in mid-May. I’d assume that this is so they can get their print articles organised prior to the [...]

9000 Aero love

It’s always good to see someone get a car they’ve dreamed of getting. It’s a great feeling. I managed to do it myself around 18 months ago and HAL_9000 managed to go one better just recently.
As a young fella, Hal_9000 dreamed of getting a 9000CS and it took him 15 years to do [...]

Speech by Carl-Peter Forster

Following is the transcript of a speech by Carl-Peter Forster, at a General Motors Corporate event in Dudenhofen, Germany, on March 29, 2007.
It’s a good insight to the current state of affairs at GM Europe and goes some way to explaining why things are done the way they are at GM. There’s been a [...]

Another April sale…..

Whilst I’m talking 9-3 SportCombis….
I get to read every comment that’s written at this site. They’re emailed to me. So I get a flowing picture of what is sometimes an ongoing conversation here at TS.
If you don’t read every comment here, then there’s a chance you don’t know much about a guy here [...]
