 2006 Saab 9-3 Aero - Road Test & First Drive - Motor Trend
The last time Saab begged parent GM for an engine with enough cylinders to compete in the U.S., it was thrown an odd 3.0-liter, 54-degree iron-block V-6 and a tiny budget with which to Saabify it.
Saab investigated an even wilder approach to reducing boost lag: turning the cylinder heads around so the exhaust came out in the valley and fed sequential twin-turbos, but intense heat was melting paint on the hood.
Saab claims the 9-3 Aero V-6 is its quickest car ever, so we expect the six-speed manual version to just edge ahead of the Viggen and 9-2x Aero, hitting 60 mph in six seconds flat and the quarter in the mid-14s with the Aisin six-speed automatic version running about a second off that pace.
