Well I'm glad that I got the 9-3SS because it is the best-driving car that Saab
has produced, ever. You know that promotional artwork sketch where a guy is
smiling behind the wheel? I’m that guy. :)
Although the sedan looks & drives great, I'm very interested in the wagon version
of the 9-3SS coming out, because I've been a c900 and ng900 owner and I miss the
Open-wide utility of the hatchback The wagon should get some of that back.
How to sell Saabs? Clearly GM, which sells appliance-cars to the masses, is not
comfortable with tiny, quirky Saab. We are seeing the GM mass-ification right
now with the 9-2X and the 9-7X. The SUV is something that I'll never be into,
but the sales/dealer types say that it does generate traffic for them (i.e. the masses).
Do the masses actually buy these dinosaurs? I have no idea.
The Subaru WRX rebadge is a much better offering, because that was a great car to
begin with (although a small car). It made sense to take it upscale a little via Saab.
Is there a market for such a vehicle? Are they selling? I have no idea.
