I see the newer Saabs are rated really well by IIHS.... I saw a commercial for a Saab with AWD. It doesn't look like the vehicles tested, but I'm wondering if it's based on one of those models?

The AWD Saab is a repackaged Subaru WRX w/ a little plusher interior. An old neighbor had a WRX wagon w/ his DD's carseat in the back, said he convinced his wife and MIL that it was a good all-around family car what with its 5-star safety rating. Plus he had fun driving it.

I rented a Subaru WRX when our Outback was in the shop and wow, that thing hauls. You definitely feel the G forces when you hit the gas, just about need a neck brace to drive it. But watch the rearview for flashing lights!

DH's seriously considering one for his next car and I'm seriously encouraging him ;)
