View that picture at 400% zoom.
= Those tires appear to be about a 60 profile. Unusual for a Saab.
= Head rests don't look anything like whats in the 9-3 or 9-5. Not proof but a definite departure...
= Why does a prototype have a government issued license plate? How do you register a prototype? Why would Saab have done so and drive it about in broad daylight?
= Driver is not smiling. This is much more consistent with a Volvo owner.
= There is also some pixel modification which is evident on the left front fender where the driver's door seam is located. Its quite obvious at 800% zoom.
I see some comments about this being a Passat body. I was going to guess an S-60 with a 9-5 front end pasted on. Either way, I think its bogus.
Cheers.
