I dont really see it makes an awful lot of difference where they are made just as long as they are quality items. The 9-5X moniker confuses me though and am sure it will confuse the public. Has there been any official notice that the 9-6X is no go or is that speculation as I thought Saab were all ready to go ahead and show this car this Spring?
IMHO Saab should have developed a crossover vehicle based on the Caddie SRX as there are too many SUVs out there these days. I hope the 9-7X has more success than the 9-2X and judging by the interior quality of the 9-7X I saw at a recent motorshow it should be.
I work with a guy who was in the market for a brand new car and he is nuts about the current BMW3 but says he cant seem to get a decent lease deal. He really likes the look of the 9-3 and it fits into his budget but his major concern is whether Saab will be around in 5 years to supply parts. I wonder how many other consumers share this concern? I am seeing more and more 9-3s here in Vancouver these days driven by "30-somethings" which I think reflects on the market the car is aimed at.
I for one was drooling at a Cosmic Blue 9-5 Aero with Oregon plates that I see most days at about 910am heading south on Nelson Street toward the Cambie Bridge, anyone here own that BEAUTIFUL car?
