    Default 2010 Saab 9-5...

    I know we got a couple of Saab fans on here, thought this might be interesting to see. Personally, I think it looks great. What say you?

    I've been waiting on this one and I'm pretty excited for it (go figure)...I love the styling. I think it'll be let down by a price that'll be too high though. It has to be cheap to be taken seriously as an alternative to BMW. It won't ride on charm alone.

    They nailed the styling though. It looks just like the Aero X up front, and I like how the windshield wraps around and blends with the window profile. Interior quality is also miles ahead. SAAB always seems to do that...their current models never seem terribly dated, however with each new model release, they make the previous gen look ancient. Great work SAAB.

    I assume this design is still under the GM influence or is it a Koenigsegg push?

    I don't like the roof line profile (looks like a gt-r's but just doesnt work for me here) or the back.

    EWWWW!

    From the side, the front doesn't look like it belongs to that rear.. The side windows are awkward and the roof line is too..

    I guess its better than this:



    I see how they got inspired from the 3 series.. But looks like an ugly version of it..

    Looks like the roof is coming straight from a GT-r

    Im a fan of Saab but i gotta say i dont like this very much, It seems they are going with the trend every other car maker is going. They are bloating their cars into big luxo sedans.

    I guess i can understand from a selling point, but to me Saab is all about small nimble cars, sleek like a fighter jet. Can you tell this is a Saab still, Sure but its now bloated and ugly.
    Life is a thought, think about it.

    It looks like a front half of a car was joined with a back half of something else.
    The interior is nice, except the dash where its like one huge air vent.
    Not there best work by far.

    I like it, the rear end kinda reminds me of a newer jag.

    lulz! saab's do have some gangster ass cupholders.

    the interior is where it's at on this car, i'm not digging the exterior styling as much as previous models though.

    That looks great to me. I like the roofline and exterior. Looks like nothing else really.

    It's great!
