Well, that's complete BS right there. That "metallic trim" might have been in teh classic 900, but it's hardly original, it's derivative of BLS, and it's cheesy.

The Saab 9-5 line, refreshed inside and out just this spring, begins at $35,115 for the 2.3T sedan, and $36,210 for the Aero Sedan - both representing an excellent value in its segment. Customers seeking more cargo options can hop into a 9-5 2.3T or Aero SportCombi starting at $36,115 and $37,210, respectively.
With its exemplary safety, surprising functionality and standard fuel economy, the 9-5 SportCombi is an excellent option for those looking for a sophisticated alternative to a traditional truck.
