I think this looks superb!

Yes, nice motor. Looks like a long awaited successor to the Sonnet.

And SAAB have finally realised that FWD is a crud idea for big HP engines. If they built the 9-3 Aero V6 with AWD I'd consider having one even though the extra 0.8 litres only provides another 40hp over the 2.0. As it stands now, there's little point in spending the extra on the V6 when Elkparts can tune the 2.0 to provide the same power for a couple of hundred quid.

As it is the V6 provides 25% more power than my old 9-3 Hot Sport Coupe and still only manages the same 0-60 time. For God's sake give the V6 9-3 AWD and up the power to around 300hp. That would make it a car worth thinking about :(
 
Cor, after the first couple of replies I thought it would crash and burn :D

Just clicked what the "door" reminds me of - that robot thing from robocop!
