How can the 9-4x be made? It was to be made in Mexico along side of the new Cadillac SRX...

Saab sure can use a crossover I don't think the 9-3X will convert anyone to Saab but I think the 9-4X would bring a lot of new blood.

IMO: Saab needs to address the V6 turbo motor too. Not a good balance between fuel economy and power it needs to do at least on of these two parameters better (hopefully both). My 2008 vert has the V6 and while it runs smooth and has good mid-range power the off the line performance is tepid and the gas economy averages about 17-18mpg for me. (My 2.0T sedan got about 23mpg in the same drving conditons).

Many direct injection engnes get better mileage and also have better performance.
