low temps and suspension noise

With the cold temps I've noticed that my 9-5 (2k wagon) makes a terrible creaking noise in the front suspension.
Is this normal? The dealer states that "all of them do this when it gets this cold (<30 F) because of rubber bushings". I'm finding that a little hard to swallow considering none of my previous vehicles exhibited this trait.
is this a SAAB "feature" that I’m going to have to get used to or is there something going on as per the previous discussions on this forum? (loose bolts / new bushings / sway bar, etc...)
Thanks
