Paul, the problem, as staed before, isn't the fact that it's a GM-engine. All the new turbo-engines derive fram the same GM-engine (Also used by Opel/Vauxhall 2.2-litre). The problem is, that this is a 100% Opel-engine, only diff. is the engine-management. :: much of a problem around the speed limit. We can only really comment :: when we actually see the car and get an opportunity to drive it. :: Nice move Saab! That said, the V6 didn't do too well, eh? My fears are, that this "new" Opel-engine will end up like the V6 -give Saab bad kredit. Cheers!
