You can tell where GM took over and stripped the car of its character. Making it either large and slow and cruiser-ish like an Impala or some kind of drab cheap looking SAV like their Tuscan or Alpine’s or whatever they’re called or made them dumb copies of a Subaru Outback. And ending with some ugly, 60’s-like corvette wanna-be Italian prototype… jeezzuzz.

@Apoth3cary yes that’s is your opinion, i’m agree that Saab has interior low and is not performance like Bmw, Caddy and others….but is good car and i like the design, is very clean and nice. I talk about 9-3 facelift 2008/2010 :) others Saab i don’t like, but remain good cars. The best cars are German’s, but are too much german on roads and i’m very bored of them…i want something different like others…i don’t like to have a same cars like others 100…
@ThomasPhp I dont even consider Saab a luxury car in any respect. The interiors are cheap feeling, the cars are FRONT WHEEL DRIVE? And even the AWD ones, are on a FWD platform, so, the car is not very weight balanced. A Cadillac CTS would beat a Saab 9-3’s ass, easy. Saabs are a Walmart brand of cars to me (at least in the luxury car market) They have all the same stuff, but it doesnt add up to be a good car.
9-7x is the worst saab ever because it’s a chevy trailblazer in a pretty suit
@Apoth3cary i’m not fan Lexus/Toyota i gived a exemple…but Lexus is more high than Toyota and Cadillac than Chevrolet because they have common cars Chevy/Caddy. But a Chevy is more shit than a Caddy.. I know is a engine GM at Cadillac, but do you think that a premium car made a piece of shit? no..and this case are many cars. Nissan is in alliance with Renault-Dacia and made good cars. I prefer a Ford than a cadillac because looks better than any american car….but from sin’s, Saab is my love.
@ThomasPhp Cadillac uses GM Engines, so you must like GM. Honda and Toyota have less problems than Nissan, and Lexus is Toyota, so,you like Lexus because it is A TOYOTA.
@cryteeek Indeed!
@Apoth3cary the Ford and Cadillac are the best american cars…other americans…have engines of shit and looks weird. Japanese cars i think the only choice is Lexus or Infinity/Nissan…Toyota, Honda have a lot of problems, looks ugly and Subaru - Mitsubishi are ugly cars in present…maybe a Evo8 or 9 is very nice. the european cars are very good and the quality is high…but are too many cars here…and i’m bored…i want a exclusiv car like Saab or something american… Regards.
i recently bought a 2002 9-3. absolutely love the car!
Beautiful tribute to a beautiful brand! Thanks for creating this! Love both of my SAAB 900’s :)
GOOD TASTE! My favourite Car, the 900 S Turbo and Shine On You Crazy Diamond! Thanks!
9-2 and 9-7. horrible horrible cars.
Turbo X made up for it though…
money kills creativity, sabb needs resurrection to once again become the player it used to be.
GRIFFIN UP !!!!!
@YS3Caero but still the new opel have tons of problems with the tecnology so I guess opel can’t handle Saabs tecnology :)
Nice timing… And great video+music… :-)
I’ll never buy a GM for what they almost did to the world’s coolest car for the people.
u forget the newest 9-5 (spyker 2010)
Great video! I love SAABs so I drive 9-5 2.3t :)))
Very nice video. I love the Saab 9000CD. It looks majestic!
@DrBPhD Actually I could get a year old Saab for less than half its retail. With the 10k I spend on my Scion tC I could of easily gotten a same year Saab 9-3, easy, but I chose the car with better interior and mechanical quality, and looks. And for your info, I am in fuckin college, no shit I cant get a goddamn BMW, but I would take an Infiniti over it anyway
@Apoth3cary You just can’t afford one so you call european cars unreliable I guess. If you try the Toyota check the brakes!
@DrBPhD Haha, I would trust a GM on a German motorway over a Saab, but, I would much prefer a Ford, Toyota, Honda, Subaru, and if HAD to be a unreliable European car, a Volkswagen Golf would be ok I suppose.
