Are you sure about "dreaded V6 GM"? The 3.0 V6 used in the 9000 and the 2.5 V6 used in the ng900 is from a different engine family than the 3.0 V6 used in the 9-5. Both engines are GM engines, the 9000/ng900 V6 was manufactured by Opel in Germany, the 9-5 V6 was manufactured by Vauxhall in England. The recently presented 2.8 V6 in the new 9-3 SC is also a GM engine. This one is manufactured by Holden in Australia. The four cylinder petrol engines used in the 9-5 are also GM engines. They are manufactured by Saab in Sweden. -- G–ran Larsson http://www.nospam.com/saab/
