Honda sold a rebadged Isuzu Trooper for a few years until they designed their own SUV.
Supposedly the 9-7 will have diferent suspension tuning for a more "Saab like" driving feel, and significantly different sheetmetal in key areas to differentiate it from it's TrailBlazer, Envoy, Bravada, Rainier, and Ascender cousins.
If moves such as the 9-7 and the 9-2 will enable Saab to generate enough income to continue the development of "their own" vehicles, I guess I support it. Just remember, the 9-5 and 9-3SS both were developed off other platforms in GM's global family, yet remain substantially unique. Maybe the 9-2 and 9-7 will be as good at the masquerade, if not, atleast it buys Saab time to develop in-house replacements for the pretenders.
