> saabs last good car was the viggen and it was all down hill from there, 9-2x was never a saab to me … just a subaru badged otherwise

the viggen sucks. the t5 saabs were alot better than t7. saab messed up making fwd cars should of made rwd or awd. esp with high torque. tire spining machine or roll ricer. i wish the viggen was awd. but it was a disapointment.

the only thing saab did to a vig is 2.3, bigger front rotors, dropped suspension, more boost and thats it for performance everything else was interior and body.

the 9k aero was the last good saab but its fwd so it sucks for performance. but it has best seats and best motor and turbo from saab. plus it out handles the ng900 and 9-3

ps the 92x is a saab.
