The hatchback classic 900, for me, is a car that borders on “insanely ugly due to terribly weird proportions.” I think that being so close to that borderline without actually crossing it is what makes the car so beautiful. The notchback classic 900, for me, is a car that goes past that border, and makes me gape in disgust and wonder (that anyone would choose it over a hatch). Something about it is just completly and totally off the mark, in my opinion. I can’t put my finger on it.

So, what is a Volvo XC90, seeing that it’s not truck-frame built SUV?

The 4 door notchback is clearly the best looking 900 ever. There, I said it.

If anyone is trying to figure out the logic of the Le and La (Jd is right), the French word for car (“automobile” or “voiture”) is feminine (so LA) but the word for truck (“camion”) is masculine (so LE). Whether from the heart or head, it seems to make great sense! Think what fun we are missing in English. (also from Québec)

I’ve been doing it wrong, too.

At least the Germans have the decency to leave most things in the ‘neutral’ category.

Why the hell you’ve got to assign genders to everything is beyond me, but, correction is noted.

La SAAB and not LE SAAB !! Yes SAAB is feminine in french, as most of brands that build mostly cars.. so we say “Une SAAB”, “Une Subaru” and “Un Hummer”
Funny: “Un 9-7x and une 9-3″…. the 9-7x is certainly the first ever masculine SAAB !!
