Here’s some more Saabs that you can’t get in the United States

I’ve been advocating and introduction of Hirsch vehicles in the US market for some time now. I’d love to get them here in Oz, too, as they are absolutely awesome machines. Oz has the problem of being too small and too far away - problems the US doesn’t have.

I just got some more photos through from Hirsch Ruckstuhl AG in Switzerland, and here’s a few more Hirsched Saab 9-3s that the US won’t be getting.

Would you be interested if I mention 252hp from a 2.0T?

Other mods include:

All this comes at a price, but I can’t believe that there’d be no clients for this in the US, and I’m sure that the presence of these vehicles in Saab’s stables over there would only help sell the brand. Just my 0.02c

It hurts, the SC looks so good.

That’s EXACTLY what I want: nearly the power of an Aero but mpgs more like the 4-banger; upgraded interior; upgraded brakes; upgraded suspension; better looking exhaust; and Aero spoiler.

I can’t think of anything else it absolutely needs, except for some ventilated seats (my 9-5 has me spoiled. :))

AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! Can’t TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!! Just send one to the states for crying out loud!!

If Saab teamed up with Hirsh in the States and warranted these mods, how long do you think it would take for word to spread?

Saabs would sell MUCH better.
