Anyone that has owned a SAAB can attest that there is some x-factor that draws you to the Saab brand. Brian Arthus is one of crazy SAAB fans. This isn’t his first 9-2x.  His first SAABaru, a name given to the 9-2x as an allusion to the model’s WRX roots, was totaled in a random traffic accident. But the story didn’t end there: Brian is back with his new 9-2x, and it’s better than ever.

Despite being a rather rare model for SAAB, this platform is actually the most familiar to the casual import enthusiast in USA. Sharing much of it’s body and powertrain with the Subaru WRX, Brian contends, “The front end . . . just has more class than its Subaru badged counterpart. . .I think they captured a more “euro” look with it.”

For over 15 years, Goran Aničić has been passionately focused on Saab automobiles and everything related to them. His initial encounter with Saab cars took place back in 2003 when the first Saab 9-3 and sedan version were introduced. At that moment, he was captivated by the car's Scandinavian design logic and top-notch engineering, and everything that followed stemmed from that first encounter. Later on, through his work at the editorial team of the Serbian automotive magazines "Autostart" and later "AutoBild," he had the opportunity to engage more closely with Saab vehicles. In 2008, he tested the latest Saab cars of that time, such as the Saab 9-3 TTiD Aero and Saab 9-3 Turbo X. In 2010, as the sole blogger from the region, he participated in the Saab 9-5ng presentation in Trollhättan, Sweden. Alongside journalists from around the world, he got a firsthand experience of the pinnacle of technological offerings from Saab at that time. Currently, Goran owns two Saabs: a 2008 Saab 9-3 Vector Sportcombi with a manual transmission, and a Saab 9-3 Aero Griffin Sport Sedan from the last generation, which rolled off the production line in Trollhättan in December 2011.
