The I4 Saab engine is much smoother. My I4 Saab engine has more power and gets better gas mileage. I bought a Saab V6 for my daugther to learn to drive. It was cheap beause no one wants them, so when it gets damaged in the hands of a beginning driver, there will be no tears shed. I own and drive both, a real Saab with an I4 and the GM V6 Saab. From my personal experience, the V6 GM engine sucks in comparison to the I4 Saab engine. But, like I said, the V6 Saab was cheap - the same car/same year with an I4 engine sells for $2,000 more. To summarize, I have seen and driven a Saab V6 and I do know it's problems. . .
