All black, tinted windows, Saab grille, big Saab logo. I wouldn't want one, but it will sell to the same people who buy existing SUV's and pimp them out. It will be different from the others out there, even if only by virtue of interior fittings, a new grille, and a Saab logo, and the people who buy SUVs to look cool will go for it. In this demo, the boxy Trailblazer lowered-truck look will be better than a raised wagon look.
Think of it like an '88 black SPG for people who think they're too cool not to drive an SUV.
OTOH, I think it could hurt Saab's "practical and environmentally friendly" image and take away from sales of other models. Overall, I'm against it, but I think it will sell. Which puts me in opposition to Justin on both counts :)
