More on Saab’s US-edition yellow convertible
When I posted the press release about this car last night there was no access to the enlarged photo. That situation has changed now and you can click this photo to enlarge it. The main change from other versions of this same photo is with regard to the wheels and the reduction in aluminium trim on the front.
There’s been some more information come through about the car as well, via Autoblog. The Yellow edition will be limited to around 300 units for the US market. it will be available with the usual interior choices - parchment or black - and it will have three colors to choose from for the top - black, sand or blue.

There’s been a lot of references in the automotive media about Saab’s yellow editions whilst they’re covering this car.
It’s an attractive segment of Saab’s history and I covered Saab’s relationship with the color over at The Spirit of Saab a little while ago.
I’ve really got to get some more stuff going on that site. So little time!



what do you guys think about Lynx Yellow with blue top??? any pics of the other models with this combo?
They need to offer more than 300 cars stateside, and they need to offer that yellow on all of the 9-3 models, not just the vert’s.
Saabs are supposed to look different, and unusual, eye catching paintjobs are a great cheap way to get people’s attention and bring them into the dealerships.
It also helps that the facelift looks fantastic in this color
That is one very, very sexy car. This colour would look mighty awesome on the Aero ‘vert, too.
And Spazzz, I personally think a black top best-suits that yellow. Blue would look a tad overdone.
We already have a Yellow Aero TTiD Convertible and although it looks great unfortunately it isnt as yellow as it looks in the picture above.
