This is strange because the majority of the Saab C900's I've noticed here in Sydney when driving around are sedan body versions, and very few are hatchbacks. In affluent parts of Sydney it could be different, mainly because those areas would have the biggest concentration of more recent GM-ified models. I don't know if the story is the same in other main Australian cities like Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, Hobart or Perth. Given that Saab seems to be associated more with Melbourne than Sydney (in terms of have more outlets for service and parts), the picture in Melbourne could well be favouring hatchbacks versions. I think that deciding on producing sedan-body or hatchback-body only is a stupid move as it's forcing that onto markets where one or the other is more favourable. I wonder if there will be a 'sunroof vs no sunroof' decision? Personally I hate sunroofs, but other people love them. Bit of a subjective issue.
