2008 Saab 9-3 review The Saab most people think of when they hear the word Saab, the 9-3 cars are the volume models in Saab's lineup. The Saab 9-3 range includes the 9-3 Sport Sedan, 9-3 Convertible and 9-3 SportCombi (read station wagon) in both 2.0T and the more sporting oriented Aero models.

Maybe we've just been talking to too many Saab fans, but everyone seems to hate the new Saab 9-7X. It's an obvious part of the platform-sharing trend at General Motors, it's true, and the world probably doesn't need another V8-powered SUV. Most of all, to the Saab faithful, the notion of a great big sport-ute joining the family is somewhat anathema.
We always find ourselves waxing a bit nostalgic when we drive Saabs, lately. The brand has done a good job of rebuilding the quirky Swedish charm that made it a success in the 1970s and 1980s. They may not look like it from the outside, but your average Saab could be considered a part of the 'retro' trend in auto styling.
