    Advertisement successful. I want a Saab.

    What's more important...I want a Saab 1995 9000 Aero. Damnit.

    Almost got a CS Turbo a few years back...but it was just a couple hundredmore than my then-budget. Oh man...such great cars. Sadly, the new ones just aren't as good as they could be. They've lost their style and lack enough go-juice (IMHO).

    Still, great video. :D

    front end throws are fun... man they could do alot more with them... I guess the track is too narrow for some REAL fun

    Problem is GM thinks that buy leaving the key on the console, they can still slap a SAAB badge on anything they make and the fans will flock. That said, the Subie base SAAB does look pretty cool.

    It looks good 'cause it is good. It has the spirit of the original Saabs...but it's not. It's a scoobie, and whilke they could have made it into a saab, they didn't. I imagine that if GM had spent a bit more--scratch that...spent anything on the interior to make it worthy of the Saab name (rather than just carry over the stiff "sporty" interior of the WRX or simply move the tach and speedo) and perhaps done a bit more than just add new headlights and a different scoop... (which I like a lot more than that of the WRX's variant, but that's not important). If only they let Saab be Saab...we'd have a winner!

    The biggest disgrace to the poor company in recent history, though, has to be the 9-7x. It's a damned trailblazer with a slightly stiffer ride and saab logos plastered all over it. It's a travesty. And the worst part? GM is rumored to be readying a [b]RWD[/b] 9-6 sedan...

    Might as well just close down the factory and let them keep whatever dignity remains.

    The 9-7x commercials were pretty amusing. Possibly the most boring SUV I've ever seen being force fed to me as unique and exciting. My, I am just positively won over, sir.
