That looks just like the 9-7x... I think that's not a 9-6x picture but either the 9-7x straight out or a photoshop based on the 9-7x...

After translating it...it's a typo, it should say 9-7X. The translation said it was based off of the Trailblazer.

I suppose it is a 9-7x but that is a great angle, makes it looks even more amazing then I thought.

Re: 9-6x? legit or a photochop?

Does the site not suggest that the vehicle is some sort of "tuner" or has been modified by this "Hammer" person? Maybe Hammer decided to call his a 9-6x.

Well.... to play Devil's advocate for a minute...
Can't the Theta (?) (Nox/VUE/Torrent) platform be extended and lowered??

Something like this with a nice turbo4 and AWD could be a nice addition for Saab. Call it the 9-4X or something. The trend seems to be for smaller/mid-sized car-liek SUVs. Target market could be the person who needs more room than a 9-3X, but doesn't need the 9-7X size. And 9-4X would do ok in some areas of Europe.

Extending Theta past the Nox would be tough. Anyway, it's a type...it's the 9-7.
