Pros: What do you like about 2006 Saab 9-7X?
I like the styling of the vehicle and like the fact that it comes with the hitch as standard.
I also like the dashboard of the vehicle as well as the stiffer ride vs. a Trailblazer.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Saab 9-7X?
I wish that the rear suspension as it raises the rear of the truck was quieter and would like to have seen a more significant change in terms of the actual gauges (they are exactly like the Chevy and GMC).

I also would like to have seen a rain sensing sunroof that could close on it's own.

An mp3 jack would have been great.

More storage up front as well.

2006 Saab 9-7X Review:
Overall, the vehicle has been good, however, we have had to change the rear suspension once because the right side of the rear would not rise to the proper ride height and the vehicle always sat as if it had a flat rear right tire. I was told this is a common problem on the vehicle.

I do like the 6 and feel comfortable with the reliability to date. I was afraid of buying the v8 as this was Saab's first v8 and I was concerned that it may still not be as good as the standard GM 6.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Saab 9-7X?
Drives well.
Very quiet.
Nice stereo sound.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Saab 9-7X?
Less vibration through the steering wheel.
Be able to have full time 4 wheel drive.
The little knobs for the air vents are a bit fragile.

2006 Saab 9-7X Review:
I was turning a corner, in the snow and the back end fish tailed because the 4 wheel drive does not engage until the rear wheels are sliding. By the time the 4 wheel drive was engaged the back end had finished its swing-around. A selector switch for full time 4x4 would be nice.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Saab 9-7X?
Handles Well, very roomy and has many features that is standard. The 0 interest deal was Great!!!

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Saab 9-7X?
Add front, side and rear bumpers. Relocate the front cup holder away from gear shift. The gear shift makes it hard to set a large cup in the holder. Also, the passenger cup holder drops down from the front panel. However it is too close to the (very expensive) navigational system and should be relocated. With the door closed, it is nearly impossible to reach down into the side door pocket. There is not enough room between the door and the seat.

2006 Saab 9-7X Review:
This car is an amazing value and really fun to drive. Anyone who says otherwise has probably not driven a 9-7X. Compare to Volvo, Porsche and Audi and you will see.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Saab 9-7X?
Balance, power (5.3) design, interior. Not seeing others, I have 4000 miles on mine and have seen only 2 othr ones on the road.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Saab 9-7X?
5 or 6 speed transmission, the 6.0 litre engine from the SS Trailblazer. A better fit and finish.

2006 Saab 9-7X Review:
I came from a Range Rover to the 97X and am pleased with the truck. Many of the attributes to the RR have been picked up in the 97X but without the high maintance. The ability to use regular 87 octane gas is a blessing with the cost of gas now days. Much better performance and handling on the road than the RR as well of braking. The fact that I get compliments everywhere I go in SoCal and no body seems to know that SAAB makes an SUV.

Have Saab engineers and designers dig their heels in and build Saabs. You are finally getting a good hold on a market because of Saab do not let it go.
