Repainted 9-3 can't hide the cracks
2008 Saab 9-3 (Vector Sport 1.9TiD 150)
Saab has lost its way a little in recent times, the brand's individuality and appeal diluted by the influence of its modern heavyweight master, GM. Changes have been made to the 9-3's styling and chassis alike; are they enough to reinvigorate Saab's bread and butter model?

2005 Saab 9-3 saloon review
