A new aircraft???? Saab Automobile has basically had no relation with
Saab Aircraft since the 90'ies. They have declined to participate in
most common Swedish research programmes since GM has cut down their
research budget. How many Saab Automobile engineers are left that has
any relation with the aircraft people? Probably none.

Where's the strange in that?

It's about heritage or moreover - feelings/passion.

What I'm wondering, since you're so critical towards Saab (Automobile), why
you even bother commenting or even read "in here"?

Basically Saab has forgotten that the main reason for owning a car is
that you want to get from point A to point B and not get stuck in point
A or point C. I have been owning Saab cars for 25 years without problems
but with the 9^5 the quality is really bad and you cannot rely that the
car is taking you where you want to go. How can we be sure that the new
9^5 has a better quality than the old model?

Well, since the Saab 9-3 SS is the best Saab ever build, I'm confident, that
the new Saab is pretty good (quality).

Well, if you try to google on saab 9^3 and problems or reliability you
get a different picture (also for the later models). It doesn't seem to
be better than the 9^5 concerning build quality. If you compare with the
later 9000 models the difference seems obvious.

I don't give at rats ar** about what goggle can tell me. I know from owners,
journalists and long time Saabmechanics, that they've never owned/worked
with a Saab that is that stable, and has had that few errors.
All cars has flaws and errors - some more, some less (eg. Toyota). But in
general, the 9-3 SS has a quality way higher than older Saab's.

Yes, in Saab 9-3 SS's favour....

If you expect a 100% troublefree car - buy a Toyota (or a Skoda).

Haha! They may have a reputation for reliability, but I wouldn't go so far
as to say 100%. I agree though, in that my Saab 9-3 has been the most
reliable car that I have owned.

Hah, funnily enough, apart from one Range Rover which I had far too much
faith, every car I have owned has been a Saab,Skoda or Toyota/Lexus.
Currently on the latest Lexus phase because when I was replacing the
9000 I didn't fancy the 9-3 hatch, the 9-3SS was too pricey still, and
The missus moaned that the 9-5 was too big.
