All subjective. I know the service from my DC dealer; no worries there. No quality worries based on personal experience. Have no experience with Saab service. I'll have to ask one of my coworkers; she's had plenty of experience :) RE: styling - Highly subjective. Witness the Ford Taurus, which some people actually *like*. I'll take the 300M any day.YMMV. Couldn't care less about 'snob' appeal. I'll wait for a freshly used one though because I can't see spending 30k on a vehicle. Plus my 60k Neon has plenty of life left..
