So, it's basically the Saab version of the Trailblazer SS.

It might be a Trailblazer, but it's just ugly.

Bring back the Saabs of the 80's! At least they were distinctively ugly.

its a chevy that was born from jets? i mean what the fuck do they think we are that stupid to belive that saabs areo division who has been on hiatus since practically the wright brothers has any possible bearing on quality of vechicles specifically engeneerd mby the general motors automobile company... the best car Saab ever had was its 9.3X or whatever because it was a rebadged WRX Subaru.... the rest are General Crappers....

J.D.:

So GM still has some leftover LS2s. Kinda a scam, should have the 6.2L L92. Or the LS3. Too bad its not getting the 6L80.

Guy:

This car looks great and performs great but the Trailblazer SS is baciclly the same car. SAAB needs to part from GM so there sales can go back up.
