the pros

1 - the engine ages like MB engines
2 - the transmission is a toyota unit
3 - the cargo space is insane - think wagon like
4 - SAAB didnt pay attention to the cost cutting class of GM
5 - Its built by Trolls in Trollhattan
Thanks Z. I was operating under the mistaken impression that all the GM versions were total crap. I like the early all SAAB ones, but they are thin on the ground now whereas the GM seem to be cheap as chips around here.

I will add them to my target of opportunity list. SWMBO wants a more modern car (one with working AC- imagine that in Florida)
