Detailed review: |
Yes this is a Subaru WRX with some extra toys and refinements. Better reliability than most 'real Saabs' as well. The 92-X Aero is worth the 3K premium pricing over the WRX. The 3K buys you- quieter interior, longer warranty, better suspension, nicer interior and exterior, Saab service (loaner car), and options such as leather interior. The car is quick 0-60 in 6 seconds and has great handling. The hatch makes it versatile for a small car. Considered the Volvo V50, but it is not as sporty. Buy the V50 if you prefer a touring car with extra toys over performance. |
