I picked up a 2002 9-3 hatchback a few months ago - I love it and the versatility the hatch gives me. I confess I found the new 2003 9-3's look a bit off-putting. If I wanted a BMW, I would get a BMW. The 2003 9-3 reminds me of a BMW, what can I say? But I suspect the hatch will be back in a year or two, wait and see. In the meanwhile, my 2002 will keep me driving in style and comfort that I like for many many years, and by the time I tire of it (maybe never!) I'm confident that for the reasons another poster wrote, there will be a hatchback 9-3 in the Saab line in the future. In the meanwhile, I'll enjoy my 2002 9-3. :-) On Tue, 22 Oct 2002 01:21:46 GMT, "Larry Kohut" <lojiknopsamhlink.net> wrote: >Is anyone else bummed that saab no longer has a hatchback in their lineup? >I'm a bassist and the thing that first drew me to and has kept me with >saab's is the huge cargo capacity and easy load.
