Saab trainer claims T8 learns aggression....

I know what you mean about the 185hp and 205hp old 9-3's, they feel stronger. The Saab trainer says a 9-3SS with T8 is more adaptive and with an aggressive driver will close the gap. A 210hp 9-3SS motor definitely has more on top.
Haven't had a chance to verify this personally because as a Saab salesperson I drive only new 9-3SS' and can't thrash them.
It's funny about the cloth 9-5's. There is no discount for the cloth, same price as leather. They were the first 9-5's availible in late 2001. You still can't sell the car to vegans as the steering wheel and shifter are still leather. We finally sold 3 of ours and put the 4th into loaner car service.
