Been wanting to inject this whenever the discussion of 0 to N mph comes up. Saab so much as says that they have no intention of chasing 0 to anything numbers. This can be heard plain as day on the CD that came with my wife's 9-3SE. Saab's focus is on safety and that sometimes calls for eyesocket compression from a rolling start, ie, merging with traffic, passing, etc. Not taking a BMW at a green light.
(It always amazes me to see the tuner boyz chasing time slips with their rice burnerz. Unless it's one of the rear/all-drive Nissans (240SX, 300Z, GTR) what's the point?)
Same with a Saab. If you're interested in off the line performance, it's the wrong car for you (not 'you', but in the general sense).
