Sewell Saab – with three showrooms in the greater Dallas area – are having an event to show off the new 2008 Saab 9-3. For those of you who haven’t seen it yet, it’ll be a great opportunity.
But even more exciting for some will be what might be their first up-close glimpse of the Saab Aero-X concept car.
I assume this is the replica that’s now been made and was shown off at the Saab Owners Convention back in August. Replica or not, it’s one heck of a sight.
This was emailed to me by both David W and Christian C. I assume Sewell would be happy for me to show the invitation here for the benefit of those who mightn’t have received one. The more the merrier, I say.

nice to see your new ads, Swade, for Niddvale Saab, and for Saab Hunterdon.

Actually, after seeing the replica at S.O.C. I was left unimpressed. It’s as if they just took a mold of all the exterior panels on the car and put them together. I understand the process of building the replica was pricey, but other than being a life-sized model, it leaves one wanting more.
I don’t even think that the canopy opens. And don’t even bother looking through the windows at the interior.

“nosh on the designer hors d’ouvres” ?
Oh brother, sure sounds like uppity Dallas, TX.
Sewell is the owner of our local Cadillac, Saab, Hummer dealership “temple” here in San Antonio, TX. Even though I spotted that 1 MY08 9-3 2.0t a couple of days ago, I’ve not seen others, yet. I know a few were already pre-sold…but you’d think they’d put them out for a little bit, for traffic interest attraction!
