Re: "New 9-5 can't come soon enough"

After seeing the new 9-3 a bunch of times, it doesn't look so bad.

I wish they kept the regular tail lamps though. And the chrome on the back is a bit much.

Re: "New 9-5 can't come soon enough"

After seeing a 9-3 going the other way on the highway today (with the running lights on) I thought it looked pretty good. Even the interior, which I understand is not liked by many, really strikes a chord with me. Whether or not the full flight TurboX would be on my shopping list (if I had 88k! to spare), is a consideration I would only make if I won about 2 mill.

Re: "New 9-5 can't come soon enough"

I think the front ends of new Saabs are so amazing, however their rears are just pathetic. So generic, they dont have a common theme like say their cross country rival Volvo.

Re: "New 9-5 can't come soon enough"

i have a love/hate relationship with the 9-3 even though i dont own one (i always wanted one).

Sometimes i like the new MCE front end, but sometimes i hated it. I liked it cuz it looks aggresive. I hated it cuz it looks dated.

i dont care much for the interior but i much prefer the pre MCE one because everything appeared cohesive although it was a buttony mess. Everything looked like it belonged together and had a purpose.
The updated one slapped on the corporate radio and then gave those knobs/buttons for hvac and it looks cheap and dumbed down to me.
