yup, I was there too ... and the tall fellow there from Saab Corporate indicated we wouldn't see any NG9-5s (or 9-5 r2.0) until June 2010. But I signed up for a brochure to be sent to me.
hate to say it, but in all likelyhood, the new LaCrosse is more likely to get my money. They had 3 or 4 on display (powered up, too), while the new 9-5 was locked up (and it was hard to really get a good look at it, with that giant tv-screen-thing all around it reflecting on it). The new Buick is just amazing, wife and I both agree - our favorite car of from the auto show (not counting cars we could never own). AWD, direct-injection v6, for $30k - FTW!
I still love my Saab, but I think the new 9-5 is missing the "killer app" for it to beat this awesome Buick, on the same Epsilon II platform. Sure, there are a bunch of people who will buy a new 9-5, but the competition is just too good for what Saab wants to give us!
