Compared to the current model, its 100% better looking. The design is very simple/understated which to me isnt boring at all, it actually looks quite classy. Rear design is my favourite.

Nice front and rear, but what's with that interior? Looks dated, busy (especially in regards to the upper portion of the IP), and boring.

Funny, it looks like a big fat American sedan.

Can't anyone in that damn company have a somewhat original thought?

I have always HATED these cars. I don't know why, they just annoy me.
Can't explain why I have so much animosity for a car - it's kinda weird I guess.

Anyway, still hate 'em.

GM has it's hand in ruining Saab. It fits their Three B's of style: big, bloated, and bland.

The Turbo X was certainly one of the better looking Saabs, much better than this.





Why did they start putting the damn chrome around the headlight, I think it looks rather ridiculous.


The Aero X concept would have been cool... with the exception of "doors"

I'll show a pinch of interest in Saab once their reliability ratings are just a BIT better then the absolute worst of the worst. Saab and Land Rover are the worst vehicles one could possibly own in terms of cost of ownership (exluding the exotic brands obviously) and unreliability. WHEN they get their shit together, I'll start showing interest.

The curvy front and rear ends don't mesh well with the blocky like cabin. The half-chromed windows look rather weird. Never was a fan of their chrome eyeliner either. Saab's signature dash design seems to be very black, flat and featureless with very prominent crosshatched vents...which appears to carry on with this car.

Never really been a fan of Saab...
