Saab predicts 40% of 9-3SS sales from current Saab owners and BB managers like you, so I hear you when you say I've insulted Saab folks. I'll try and be more delicate. It's nice not having to apologize to the un-intiated about the looks of your car, but haven't we all heard it? Isn't that one of the reasons to own a Saab, that it's not for everyone?
Well there are still lot's of reasons Saabs are not for everone, but styling, as regards the 9-3SS, is NOT one of them anymore.
Sharp handling was another C&D high. I think you'll be reading more about this when comparison tests come out. It's subtle, the lack of mass in the front of a front driver. I don't think people realize just how nimble a 9-3SS is, it's new territory, uncharted waters, first of it's kind. We'll see.
