Am in love with the new 9-5 Aero Wagon! The only car there that excited me, the only car there I really wanted. I was surprised. I wasn't too hot on the 9-3 Sport Combi. Felt too claustrophobic for me, and some of the interior was kind of flimsy. Nice looking, nice car, but not great.
Was skeptical of 9-5, but open-minded. The 9-5 was great! It was off-limits to the public but the Saab guy let my wife and I sit in it as it was the end of the night, and maybe the force was with me.
I looked at a lot of new cars. Ignored the 9-7, though. Skipped Mercedes cause I'm not keen on the new ones. Skipped the bigger BMWs, looked at Volvos, Saabs, VWs, Jaguars, Ford Mustang, Mini, etc...
I liked the larger Volvo wagon, ok, and I liked the VW Passat and Jetta for comfort and interior (not styling on the VW) and front windshield visibility.
But when I got home and took out my 9000, I was very pleased. The newer cars just don't have the spacious glass and breathing room of the 9000. Only the 9-5 Wagon would make it hard to choose between the 9000 and the cars I was in...
That's a nice feeling.
