I've driven a few Saabs. Some old and some new that I LOVED! Only one I didn't like was a used one we test drove in '08 that had a problem with the stock radio. I also, know quite a few people that own them and love them. I'm sorry your experience was so bad. Hell, even the LSJ in my '05 Saturn ION Redline that I had till last year was supposedly originally a saab motor.
