Saab CX




This interesting one-off was made but a Saab fan out of a late-model old style 900 (you know, the angular ones). It was an attempt at a sportier version I believe with sleeker lines, a Saab 9000 interior and Saab 9000 taillights.

I have to find more info on this (I remember I had read up on it at one point) but the car overall looks too tall (because of the old platform) and narrow, as it's very wide headlights squash the front grille. Interesting because of it meld of old Saab 900 and GM-Saab 900 looks, but still fugly.
