Brent, Thanks for the update on what the 9-3 looks like. Re: the treatment, well, perhaps that's GM rubbing off on them. Not that it helps us over here, but I was in London last fall and went to the car show there - tremendous! And the Saab display was pretty good too; of course the 9-5 is already available over there. Re: the split 9-5, in the London show, they had what appeared to be a complete 9-5 on a turntable. Then a video started on a large screen behind the display, the turntable then pivoted, turned, etc and the car split apart - to show the engineering features and the styling features at the same time. The 'table continued to turn and pivot so the audience could get a good view. Perhaps Saab is using this type of display only for European (or larger US) venues? John
