Okay, so it's a nice looking CAR. I'll give it that. But, IMHO, that is not a SAAB. They turned the 9-3 into every other euro sports sedan around!
Now don't get me wrong, I like sports sedans, but... I like SAAB's better. That is a nice car, but it just doesn't have that certain "SAAB" flavor.
Am I the only one here that thinks this way? That car has the looks of a C-class, or a 3-series. I just don't see it being a SAAB.
Once upon a time, SAAB made a car that could not be mistaken for anything else on the road. If I saw that car badged as a new BMW, I might not second-guess it. I suppose the old saying is correct...
they don't make 'em like the used to...
(and what, no high-perf version? Did they detune it?!)
Just my 0.02!
