A minor point if you ski, bike, or carry cargo on your roof:
I had a horrible time installing a roof rack (for skis/bikes) on my sister-in-law's ES300. The doors do not have a frame so the window glass presses right up to the cross bars. The was a sizeable gap where the window/weather stripping/crossbar met. Must be really miserable on a cold mountain or in the rain. I was also afraid that the glass would shatter given one good door slam.
The Saabs have an ingenious design...the crossbar bolts are built into the car frame. This makes it very easy to mount the crossbars and keeps them extremely secure.
