Personally, I kind of like the fact that alot of people seem really uneducated on how great a car the 9-5 is because then I don't see them everywhere that I drive. I have relatives that won't even consider a car that Motor Trend or Car and Driver isn't falling all over itself for (i.e. BMW). For the price (especially with the current incentives), I don't think there's another car out there with the same options, horsepower and quality. Heck, even Consumer Report labels the 2004-2006 9-5 as smart buys.
I also find, at least here in the midwest, that alot of people seem to attach a real snob (snaab?) factor to Saabs. When I get labeled a yuppie by my co-workers I always feel like telling them that I probably only paid a little bit more for my 9-5 than they paid for their boring Honda Accord.
