Whoa!

Funny that they left the ignition on the center column as is Saab tradition, but now it is the trendy push-button start setup instead of a key.

Interior looks pretty damn cool, but I HATE the Mercedes-style speedo that only shows the last inch or so of the needle, with the center of the dial occupied by a stupid screen / display.

Sharp looking car, though, despite the weird photo angles used.

 

love the interior.

 

so who is making this car? GM... Koenigsegg?

 

Something about the exterior lines is throwing me off. That, and the overall shape reminds me of the new Taurus for some reason too.

But the interior is GREAT! I'm very impressed with the level of design they put into it.

It did take them over 10 years though to finally get a new 9-5 out though.

 

The interior looks very much like they were emulating the little design details of a jet (or at least some sort of aircraft). Seems a little too busy and hokey to me... ok I get it, your theme is "born from jets" but that doesn't necessarily mean that Joe 5 series shopper is going to get turned on looking at those gauges and thinking how he could be a fighter pilot.

I'm not sure about the exterior. I don't really care for the roof line... kinda looks like it took some cues from the 300c or some other low slung roof 'I wish I was in the mob' type car.

Interesting that this car came from GM because I really can't tell looking at the inside or outside... if I didn't know Saab is (or was) a GM brand, I'd believe this car was built by Ford engineers.

 

Looks good to me
