The talk has begun: last week the outlines of Koenigsegg's intent for Saab was publicized, now the sports car company is flapping their jibs to back it up. The 9-5 and 9-4X that GM developed will be arriving shortly, and behind those is the 9-5 SportCombi. The gem for Saab fans is the mention of a redesigned 9-3, and perhaps a 9-1 and 9-2.

The Saab allroad 9-3X is a SportCombi on stilts wearing a few new clothes.

Saab 9-3X and 9-5 officially confirmed for 2009 rollout 10 months ago on Autoblog

Over the last six months, the fate of Saab has become even more of a question than it has been for the last several years.

Saabs with the latest Haldex bits tucked underneath are a hoot to drive, as we found out the two times we sampled the Turbo X.
