Hello , I have now taken a closer look at the new 9-5, as I am about to change the car. Although I am also a Saab fan, I have to admit objectively that this vehicle will not find many buyers. And whether this will strengthen the future of the brand is left behind. My impressions are the following: I have looked at the Aero 2.8 V6 XWD. 1. The price With full equipment just over 66,000 euros!!! You can argue about it. If I think about it, I have the Aero 2.8 V6 XWD. 1. The price With full equipment just over 66,000 euros!!! In 2003, my Troll R also cost just under 65,000 euros. But the Troll was then state of the art, respectively its time in some things ahead. 2. Engine / transmission The 2.8 V6 from GM is about developmental status eight years ago !!! The 6-speed automatic transmission is from the MY 04, i.e. also at least six years old !!! Other manufacturers in this price segment offer at least 6/7 gear double clutch transmission or 8-speed automatic transmission. 3. Consumption 16.7 liters innerorts ??? As for example the new Mercedes CL 63 AMG with 6.2 liter cylinder capacity, V8, has just 17.9 liters !! A BMW 335i also significantly less with similar weight. Whether a head up display, two TFT screens will be enough to achieve good sales ?? I believe for the money or for 3000 more euros have other manufacturers like BMW,Mercedes,Audi, to offer the customer more “timelier” to. Alone the individuality for an outdated technology we do not impress many Saabians. But I hope the best for Saab.
