Review
Very pleased with the purchase so far. You can really notice the change made to the handling by GM. However, a close family memeber has a GMC Envoy and you really see a lot of the same characteristics in the Saab. With GM's history I can only guess that how durable the 9-7 will be. Although, you can't go wrong with the factory offered 4 year bumper to bumper warranty and 3 year service warranty. These were very appealing at purchase. In all, I would recommend the Saab, because I do not beleive you will find anything better for your money.

This was a great first attempt by Saab to enter the SUV market. It is basically like a mini-Cadillac Escalade. Great unique styling sets it apart. On a 1000 mile road trip from OR to CA I didn't see another one on the road. Very plush and comfortable on the inside. As a true Saab afficionado, the ignition location in the center makes me feel like this is the real deal and not just a re-badge. Plenty of power, but acceleration up hills is a bit lackluster, I wish it had a turbo like my old 9-5. Fuel economy on the road trip was the as- advertised 21 mpg, luckily it runs on regular unleaded. All in all, great car with plenty of comfort and room to haul your stuff, plus the ability to tow.

I am very pleased with the purchase of my Saab 9-7X Linear. It rides real smooth and has the safety I am looking for. The seating is very comfortable and offers a lot of room. I do find everything too compact. There are not enough areas to store little things. The gas mileage is not very efficient for todays gas problems. I average 15.6 miles to the gallon. That is including both Highway and City driving. This is a luxury SUV in my opinion. They offer onStar and satellite radio free for 3 months.

Without the GM discount, this SUV is still a great bargain; in fact, at $39K it beats most other luxury SUV's in price. With the GM discount this vehicle is an absolute steal at $33,800 (Linear V6). What a gorgeous interior! Saab did a wonderful job with this GMC/Chevy hybrid. It has a definite Saab feel inside and out. This SUV comes with all of the bells and whistles that you can imagine - standard!

We are very happy with our new Saab 9-7X. It drives like a car and has an elegant look to it. We think Saab has done a great job on the design. When we are out enjoying our Saab, we always get second looks.

Review
This is the best car I have ever had. I have had BMW's, Range Rover's, Mercedes,and an Acura MDX. Nothing is as impressive as the Saab 9-7x. It handles like it's on rails and the 5.3 liter V-8 unleashes amazing amounts of thrust to my rear wheels. I pretty much live in my car because I have to drive all over New England for bussiness. Trust me you will love it!

With the GM discount, this Saab was delivered with every option for just over 34k. Leather, xm radio, heated/electric seats w/ memory, moonroof, 6 disc changer, onstar, xenon headlights, garage door opener, side airbags, cruise, 18 inch wheels, tow hitch, bose 300 watt stereo, power mirrors/locks, rear amd passenger climate controls, plus more all included! Rides great, handles great for an SUV, rough on gas! The V6 has plenty of power, but go with the V8 if you are going to tow.

I need a 4 wheel drive vehicle and wanted something towards the top of the line within my price range. With the employee discount deal, the Saab met those requirements. Also liked the all- inclusive deal...You only can choose between a sunroof or a DVD player. I took the sunroof. The ride is OK, but a bit you do feel the road quite a bit. Bottom Line: good deal for the price.

Recently purchased the Linear 97x. I've owned 5 SUV's since 1990 and this is by far the best vehicle I have ever owned. The Saab looks great and after 1 month of ownership I have yet to see another one on the road. Handles like a european sedan and comes fully loaded ! XM, On-Star, premium leather, DVD, side impact air bags, all standard. Rides great, looks great and comes loaded. Look forward to next 100,000 miles.
