9-2 debut

I recently checked out the 9-2 and here are my comments:
1) disappointed engine torque curve was not altered to improve low rpm response
2) basically same car at Suburu WRX wagon with MUCH better looking sheet metal
3) 16" standard wheels on Aero model disappoint
4) High price and low value equation for Aero
5) Base model laughable compared to value to be had if you just buy a Suburu Impreza
6) Ultimately, this reminds me of Cadillac and the Cimarron which was rebadged Buick.
7) GM is insulting the American car buyer's intelligence and using the Cadillac Escalade as the model for product line expansion for SAAB.
8) Expect GM to offer a Sierra pickup truck in SAAB sheet metal in the not too distant future as well as a Chevy Tahoe.
9) Much better value is to just by a Suburu.
