...Hondas + Toyotas are popular because of their historic reliability + overall economy more so than their looks.
There's things I like + things I don't about this 9-5. I sure hope it sells well though for Saab's sake...
The first shot looking up from the ground is the best angle imho, as it understates the high window line. Once again, GM botched a perfect clamshell hood opportunity: follow the line of the corner of the headlight to the subtle crease along the side front to back... grrr... they've kept a lot of the 2006-09 9-5 Dame Edna front end look instead of adopting the much better looking 9-3 front... but, while I don't love the overall shape + curves at the back, I do like the tail light band across the back (like the 9-4x) - kind of a throw-back to the 9000... I don't terribly care for the interior either, although at least they are trying to push the envelope.
I'm looking forward with excitement to Koenigsegg's Saab offerings... GM has sucked the life out of Saab...
