I think a lot of the 'new Malibu' comes from the BRX, which looks very close in the C-pillar.

 

It is very impressive to me how they translated the CTS/Art&Science design themes to the Saab 9-3 architecture. If you didn't know that car was fwd, you would likely not guess it. Of course, that is also rather true of the 9-3. I think it stylistically has rather short front overhangs for a front driver.

Of course I'd take a CTS first, but if that car were sold here for a lower price than a CTS, I'd drive it. I happen to love the 9-3, so I could get one that looks like a Caddy...

But still, I'm not sure it makes sense for this market. On the other hand, the CTS is a little bigger than the 3 Series class of cars (though that whole class keeps getting bigger and heavier, so it may not matter much).



Still a cool car, regardless.

 

It doesn't make sense for the USA, our BLS/BTS should be RWD Kappa based.

I just find it interesting that the BLS is being imported into North America. Can you buy one in Mexico and register it in the USA? They have the same engines as the 9-3
