Wow - The local dealer (B&B Saab) had 1 2002 new Hatch left from last year - 3 door if I recall. Glad to hear the hatch is coming back in the new 9-3. We ended up getting a 9-5 Aero Wagon (today - too cool!!!!!!)! If you want a wagon that performs, I am glad Saab gives you a good choices - didn't really compare with brand "V" - ! Brent
