The 1998-2009 9-5 is a liveable everyday car despite having a rough and somewhat cement-mixer sounding 4 cylinder engine. I can live with having to change the DIC at 30k, the turbo hpv at 58k, and other vacuum […]

The 9-3 is a far cry from Tesla and is not even in the same league my friend. Telsa made it becase the product offering is absolutely incredible and cutting edge in every way possible. The new Tesla sedan has a […]

Tim,
I know you have a personal interest in SAAB because of your families’ connection to them as employees of the company which is wonderful. But let’s be honest here.. If you were really honest with yourself […]

The outgoing 9-3 was an underdeveloped car of dubious build quality, bone jarring suspension, and questionable reliability. THEY WANT TO RELAUNCH THIS? These are all facts not opinion.

And to be honest I dont see this as good news as a SAAB-ophile and lover of cars. If they can sell cars in China than terrific but that does nothing for the legions of SAAB fans that have been patiently waiting […]

I wish NEVS all the luck but they have some stiff competition i.e.: (Ford Fusion Plug-In, etc) which it pains me to say it (call a spade a spade) runs circles around the 9-3 in build quality, technology, […]

Friends,
I love the front end end of this rendition but from the sides and rear, well, if a 9-3 and a Chrysler crossfire had a baby this is what it would look like.

Angelo,
I dont think you read my entire thread or perhaps you read every other word of the thread. I very much disagree with you.. If you read my thread from beginning to end I also mention that SAAB was also […]

Friends,
Regarding the comment that Saab did not sell well because of its design, etc had nothing to do with the design of the vehicle. Many people hate the kidney grill and design of the BMW. But BMW sells […]

Tim,
A SAAB- quite simply a car that doesn’t follow the mainstream design cues from mainstream manufacturers which is quite evient in this rendering.
When you look at my 06 9-5 it is soo original that it […]

Moreover this is a Saab enthusiast website. If this was a general car design site I could understand but most of us are loyal to what makes Saab unique: it’s familiar and loyal design architecture , etc. This […]

it Friends,
I love Saab. I have been a faithful owner of many including my current 2006 9-5. My comment was erased because I didn’t feel it resembled a Saab. Not cool. I thought it resembled from some angles a […]

I agree with Red J. The CGI looks like a cross between one of KIA’s 2008 4 door compacts and 2006 Hyundai Elantra, or is it Accent?
Unfortunately we wont see anything close to a totally new 9-3 for some years […]

This is good news I guess.. But honestly I will believe it in when I see it regarding parts availability for my 2006 9-5. So far SPNA was not able to provide a replacement bumper cover for my vehicle, […]

Meanwhile it took three months to obtain a bumper cover for my 06 SAAB 9-5. After three months the body shop was able to locate a used, heavily mucked up bumper cover which they had to completely refinish and it […]

Again,
Us SAAB enthusiasts are used to seeing these type of bizarro, incongruent press releases about SAAB ventures, etc. What I mean is something does not resonate correcty or seem right. Why would a Chinese […]

Congrats on this beautiful machine. My 06 9-5 had similar problems including the replacement of the DIC. The interior has not held up so well (plastic IP trim delimaminating), cupholder broken, center console […]
