It'd be hard for something NOT to look better than the new TL. Honda screwed up bigtime.

I don't think the 9-5 looks like a TL wannabe at all.

Youre thinking of Alfa-Fiat-Chrysler.

I get chubbies for Spykers...I think they are the best designs on the road today...all the little details are amazing close up.Hopefully some of that style trickles down to saab and their tall asses.

Just saw this on Saab's FB page. The ad was run on Feb 26. Nice little tribute to the handful of loyal customers they have left.

^*sniff*That really makes my eyes water. Saabs are awesome, even if GM did taint them quite a bit after the mid 90's. Goes to show just how die-hard Saab owners are--they bought them anyway.

How much longer till Spyker fails at this too and tries to sell this to Vijay Mallya just like they did the old Jordan team?
