You don't see many new 9-3 here at the moment, perhaps this could even be a plus point as BMWs are common as mug. A minor gripe is that the new 9-3 looks less like a Saab; it looks and a bit anonymous and not as expensive (and good) as it is. Apart from the front grille, it could be a car from anywhere. A BMW 3 looks like a BMW, A Volvo S60 looks unmistakably like a Volvo. Johannes
