Red face New Saab 9-5

Back to quirky cars?

It actually looks pretty good to me.

I guess that would be the new 2010 Buick LaCrosse with a Saab skin.
Lot of GM/tier1 supplier engineers are really impressed with the new 2010 LaCrosse.
I expect nothing less with this Saab sebling.

I like it! It has an odd, quirky, 70's retro look to it. I thought SAAB was going under?

Nice, but the rear taillight design reminds me of the Hyundai Azera

Yeah the best efforts from Saab and Jaguar courtesy of their former owners.
