Yep, was sold for a couple of years in the states i think? it was a complete flop

Basically a newage wagon with the later interior and a different front end/rear lights. Never seen one in the UK though....

Guy I work with is a Saab nut, I quite like it actually. As you say, was a flop in the states and any for sale would be left hoovers.

If it hadnt been for the insightful knowledge already provided i would have said that was a photo shop job. Not sure if i like it or not yet but kinda want one for its rarity!

I think it was a part of the GM consortium that didn't last long shortly followed by Saab pulling out of the car market.

Yeah, I've seen these before.

First time I saw one I thought someone had done a conversion.... then I found out it was a production car.

Some of the modified/stance ones look mean.
