Saab STi

[fooby]

Saw this in a comment on the mighty mods Facebook page. I don't know what to think...

[Vitorio]

I honestly cant tell, is it a subaru with a saab front end, or a saab with a sub engine?

Dont like the doors much TBH

[TheJimi]

Impreza with Saab.

[TooLateForAName]

saab 9-2?

[Blayney]

Not as good as the Wasaabi 9000 turbo choo choo is gonna be.

[Baryonyx]

Wasn't there a cheapo Saab 9-3 that was based on a basic Impreza shell with the Saab front end grafted on anyway?

[hexstatic]

Probably a front end off a Saab 9-2x, a badge engineered Subaru Impreza estate.

[snotrag]

Yes. Other than the lambo doors that's a regular American production car. Think they called it the 9-2

[MDMA .]

More interested in the Blitzen on the drive.

In the US and Canada they sell (or used to sell) a Saab 9-2 based on the Subaru Impreza. Basically an Impreza with a Saab front and rear end

They also made a Saab 9-7 SUV based on a GMC/Chevrolet

Never knew about any of these. You learn something new every day. Having owned an Impreza & currently a Saab it's quite interesting seeing the 2 patched together!

Me neither - every day's a school day! I'm surprised how well the two blend together, I'm noticing traits from each that I hadn't before. Nice post fooby.

At least it's not a 9-5 with a flat 4 and a huge rear spoiler.

This is the comment it was in.



Never knew about the Sabbaru in the US, that's pretty cool. Also explains how a Saab front end fits on an Impreza.

thats a good looking SUV.. not sure about the cars above though..

[mp3manager]

Comedy panel gaps for the win!

[smithyithy]

Bloody scissor doors though, what a waste of money.

I remember when they were all the rage on the Max Power cars, used to be advertised in the magazines for £1000+ just for the set of hinges..
