2011 Saab 9-3?
Last Updated:
Maybe…
From what we saw with the new 9-5, Saab isn’t going to do anything crazy or futuristic anytime soon.
So it could end up looking like that.
They sold about 125 000 cars in 2007, and about 35 000 less in 2008.
You know 2009 won’t be pretty.
The new owners hope to pass the 100 000 mark again with the new 9-5.
But it’s really the 9-3 that will help them out. And it is long overdue.
Cool! Like nothing else.
Too little too late??
Looks good though.
Just like the 9-3 looks like something that came back from the 70's. And extremele austere just like the 9-3. Not a design that screams fun or sporty.
Sure unlike anything we see nowadays. But even if people would like it, no one would consider buying it.
SAAB is dead, long live SAAB.
If the real thing looks exactly like that, let the record show, I will buy one.
GM is Automobile cancer… we will never find a cure.
Cadillac CTS with a Saab front end?
100,000 sales without a new volume leader model?
From a niche brand with two models?
From a brand that is mainly popular only in the North East?
Saab is dead. Just bury it and move on.
Make it a hatchback to bring back the faithgul. You can do it without changing the looks.
It's funny – BMW is now making hatchback versions of the 3 and 5 series. Honda bringing out a hatchback Accord. I believe Mazda offers a hatch. Saab was ahead of the pack in the 1980s with its 900 Turbo hatchback. I had mine through 265,000 miles and then sold it. Never a valve job. Never replaced the turbo. Never lost a drop of oil. Did replace the clutch once. The car was durable, comfortable, utilitarian, efficient and had CHARACTER. I believe GM killed the car. Long live SAAB.
It kinda looks like a woman's tampoon.
Yes! So cute! Let's see the wagon version!
THe new Subaru Legacy is better.
So many comments coming from ignorant Chrysler Sebring drivers that believe they know everything in cars! Let's face it, you don't no anything and when you do, it is only about cars that you will never drive or will understand. For the few comments that are valuable in this page, please keep posting to maintain interesting discussions…
FYI for the ignorant crowd, Saab is probably one of the few car manufacturer that actually innovated over time, and brought to us some of the best safety features, and performance evolution… Get educated! And to be honest this car is not only a nice vision of what could logically be the next Saab 9-3, it is back to the real Saab philosophy in every aspect! And it is sporty, not in a muscle car way, that's it… Cheers 😉
Where's the draw string?
bof
Lets face it, the face on this car sucks so face it at your own peril.
YOU SAID: " Saab is probably one of the few car manufacturer that actually innovated over time, and brought to us some of the best safety features, and performance evolution." I SAY: "-without the leadership of either GM or SAAB Aviation; SAAB's "window of opportunity" is quickly closing. I have absolutely no faith in the abbilities of their new owners.
