Canadian day-by-day road test
Just a quick note….
Canadian Driver are conducting a day-by-day road test on the Saab 9-3 2.0T. This is the reviewer’s first time in a Saab, so it’ll be interesting to see how things progress.
Day 1 was merely introductory and not much was missed. You can read about it directly under the text for Day 2. Again, not much driving on day 2 (you’ll read why) but the author manages a good overview of the interior.
As you can see from the photo, our tester is going to get to drive the 9-3 in the conditions it was born for. Thankfully, it works well in the dry, too.
I’ll be keeping an eye on this one.

I think there is going to be a lot of black 08 9-3 stories here for a while. I’ll be picking up a TTiD at 11.00am UK time on Friday, can’t wait.
Black is the new black, you know.
Black is the only color of the ‘08 9-3 that makes the new taillights look good. This is good if you like black cars…
After looking at the pictures in the article I have to keep saying to myself “black is not a good colour for a car as it gets dirty way too quickly” whilst at the same time thinking black Saab’s are sexy! I wish they made an arctic white sedan as that, along with snow silver, is my colour of choice. Now back to my train of thought, black is bad, black is bad……
Robin M, you lucky b*gger. Why cant we get the TTid here in North America. Its grossly unfair! We expect a full road test much like Swade’s very own test of the 320i he did earlier in the week. Have fun with it mate!!!
zippy, I’ll tell you more about it tomorrow when I actually get my mits on it, there is a story behind the story. 12 hours from now, one more sleep as Azzy says. Lucky…..I would have to agree.
Swade I bet you can guess what car 46 will be.
I GOT A REPLY FROM SAAB CANADA ABOUT THE PRICING OF THE TURBO X HERE IN CANADA…..SORTA!
“Thank you for your recent email.
General Motors’ plans for future products are EXCITING! We wish we could share those plans with you; however, it is traditional in the automotive industry to keep all details confidential until a public announcement is made.”
Idiots!
zippy, I’ve got it, take a look at this, gosh its good.
That is a mighty handsome looking car.
