April 29, 200718 yr How much longer until the new 9-5 arrives? I want to see a new Snabb (= 'fast'/'quick' in Swedish)
April 29, 200718 yr Nothing about the 280HP Black Turbo or AWD? yeah i was looking forward for that to be in the additions How much longer until the new 9-5 arrives? I want to see a new Snabb (= 'fast'/'quick' in Swedish) 2009 for the 9-5 and 2010 for the 9-3 if they keep to the schedule. I hope that they step it up though! Saab needs a total revival/refresh!
