Ditto to Dave in Chicago. The 9-3X we are thinking of is a separate "model", combi only, with a slightly raised suspension, softer springs, 17" wheels, 225-50-17 tires, XWD, and 6 speed a/t all standard. I had one for a couple of days as a service loaner. The 6 spd a/t seemed to balance out the extra drag and weight of XWD in terms of fuel economy. The softer ride was pleasant and yet the car handled about the same as a standard 9-3. Parts should not be a problem. Saab Parts AB, currently owned by the Swedish Government, and it's subsidiary Saab Parts of North America have just about filled the parts pipeline to "best ever" levels. Service would depend on your local service providers - you should visit them and ask.
