This doesn't look anything like a Saab to me. The front looks kind of Chrysler-ish, and the side looks like an Opel. I'm going to wait for more official pics before I believe this is a Saab.

Are you kidding? It looks very similar to the current 9-5, especially the roofline.

Whoa, okay I'm terribly mistaken, but the front is different, especially without the Saab grill.

Yeah, I figured that, but if I said so, I wouldn't have this post to make.

I think Saabs look nice, and I don't think dated would hurt them much, but they really need to boost sales to be more of a prescence, so they'll need something more interesting that that spy shot would suggest they're going to make.
