They finally rid of those round ugly ass body style/s. The new 9 3 looks pretty nice! But for 40K new loaded...I think I could find something better. A for effort though.

I agree, there seem to be enough "Loyal Saab owners" as they call them out there, to keep Saab alive, but i dont know whyOriginally posted by Stratus_Power

I like the new Saabs too, but as mentioned before- I probably wouldn't drive one. One of my buddies has a 94-ish Saab 9000CDE and its drives okay, not what I would have expected though.

Those are Saabs??? They look pretty decent. But personally, if I had to drive a Swed car, its still have to be a Volvo. Saabs are still Lesbo-mobiles

The new Saab 9-3 is definitely sexy! I like the sleek lines, just slap on some wheels and drop it, it look SWEET!

Hey,
I can't help to notice there are alot of haters here, my only suggestion is get your ass up and go for a test drive in either the Aero or Viggen, it will sway your mind really quickly. And yes, Im very loyal to Saab.

I drove an S60 T5 two summers ago, and I have to say the volvo is QUICK. Very smooth ride at highway speeds, I took the thing up to 200km/h by complete accident on crowchild. I was going 120 then I looked again a couple seconds later and speedo said 200... It did however have massive torque steer, and a terrible turning radius, and next to impossible to keep it going straight at low speeds, however that was 2 years ago and I'm sure adjustments have been made.
I love the s60 t5 and s80 t6, especially in blue. As for the saab, i'd say it's an improvement, but it looks a lot like a ford, or dodge stratus or something, that's my problem with it.

LOL, what I meant by accident is that I in no way shape or form decided to try to hit 200km/h, or see top speed or anything, i was just cruisin with my foot pushing down the pedal.

Absolutely. I'm sick of this low quality car stuff, and horrendous dealer service.Originally posted by max_boost

The student loans and credit cards are getting under control. Next year.... next year...
Oh, I'm leaning towards the Carlsson kit on the C230.... damn beautiful!
Just need someone to make a pulley for the new motor!

i dunno, theyre cool cars...and saab has done a good job coming out with sedans instead of hatchbacks..but handling isnt exactly their strongpoint.
ps. are those door handles plastic?
