How about the 2006 SAAB 92X AWD? Are they getting the same 2.4L ???




The front end looks very identical. SAAB's front end is more appealing?

Gosh, should I be trading in my wagon? I really think I like the new look, and the new color, and I hear the handling and suspension are much improved!

I'm not impressed with the '06. The lines look clean, but it also looks too mature. The nicer interior, intriguing 2.5L engine, and supposed beefed up tranny all make it an interesting upgrade of the original bugeye though. Exterior styling wise, I feel that the Saab 9-2X looks worlds better. The '06 looks like, dare I say it, a bastard child of Subaru and Saab.

No offense, but that's like saying you'll continue using a parachute known to be defective because yours has never failed on you!

I need to walk over to Carlsen's and peep the 06 sedan, if I get the right goose bumps I smell trade in. Does anyone know if most aftermarket parts for an 03 will bolt on directly to an 06?

im thinking the exhaust stuff would just bolt right on because its still a td04. the suspension stuff if probably like the 04-05 so stuff from the bugeye would need to be swapped over pre-assembled since its the top hats that causes problems.

I feel a bit like that every time I go to Ron Price for an oil-change...
