I must correct you on one point where you said:
"Saab needs to pay more attention to body flex in the future. The C900's and 9000's had much stronger bodies."
This is a total myth! The fact is the NG 900/9-3 has a STIFFER body frame than the C900!! This fact comes straight from the design book "Saab 900 - A Personal Story" written by Anders Tunberg. Buy the book... It's a good read.
The other points you made about the rear suspension and too much power through the front wheels I totally agree with. They need independent suspension and/or AWD to put the power to the pavement. That will come with time (and at a higher cost). In the meantime, I think the "new gen" 900 and 9-3's are a lot more refined than the C900... but that's just my opinion.
