But in fairness saab did make significant engineering changes to make the 2 cars very different in feel and response. The early 93 was just a nip and tuck of the same car. But it was hugely GM sourced, The 9000 was a joint effort with Fiat. The original Fiat Croma and Lancia Thema shared the same floorpan, doors, etc. I'd say you need to go back to the late '70s for the last new 'real' saab.

They have the GM chassis but it's SAAB engineered and built and it shows everywhere in the car. Well worth the money, easy and cheap to fix as well as being cheap to insure (or it is if you're in your 40's like me).

With alot of the cars at least 2 hours away I don't want to waste time travelling without buying but the short and absent test is off-putting. Am I being too fussy in what is a buyer beware market?
