"We were rushed to get it done and that is why it is like this" is not something that really makes you want to go out and buy it, eh?

When the key is get it done fast, it doesn't initially ring of anything enticing.

Didn't like that Sabb would get power train improvements first before Chevy, GMC and (probably) Buick.

It will be interesting to see it in person (or photos) with the lowered stance. That might be just enough to differenciate it.

Did anyone see the pic in truck trend? I'm sure it was a photoshop but it looked good. I think the SAAB should get a Turbo I5 not a I6 or V8

I agree. iwould think the turbo inline whatever whould be more in line with SAAB than a V8.

However, I never really thought an SUV would be in line with SAAB...
