Saab Turbo X arrives at dealership…..
It feels like this week is going to be a special Turbo X week. We had the first production vehicle rolling off the line not long ago, Wulf got to take one for a drive yesterday, and today we have one of the first I’ve heard of arriving at a dealership for pre-delivery.
This story came in via email today from Kristian…..

I tend to spend to much time at my local SAAB-dealerships, and as I walked in on Friday, a salesman jumped up, ran towards me and said: “Hey, Kristian! It is here!”
Naturally I was quite psyched. I joined him for a VERY fast walk out to the back of the store, and there, in all its glory was the new Turbo X XWD. What lines, and what beauty! And what rims! It was just delivered, and the salesman said that the guys at the dealership had decided to work overtime to ready the car over the weekend.
I was allowed inside the beautiful car, and it looks great. It was also fired up, and the sound is INCREDIBLE!
No photos from inside the car, but just being allowed to sit in it made my day 
Too bad it’s not mine

And yes, we have photos……
If you’re expecting a Turbo X this week and you’re in Norway, this might be your car!!!

i also hope that this wonderfull car very soon are delivered in germany
Which norwegian dealer is this from?
Also in OZ soon. The only comment to ad is that you can notice from miles the difference between this car with 18 vs 19′ wheels. The one tested by Wulf had the 18′ as well. Maybe we are too used to seeing it with 19′ as it looks a lot meaner and mightier. Each to its own choice/taste but the 19′ set is a must in this car. Reviews have indicated that the ride is pretty good under this set up.
My dealer is telling me August delivery for the Turbo X to Australia.

Argh… the wheels look like they have those plastic lug covering caps. I have those on my
viking shield wheels with my snow tires. While
they covers the lug nuts well, they all have some paint chips save for the one that is new and a difference cover. Also, any tire facility save the dealer shoves a screwdriver in the slot to take them off and scratches the wheels.
