Retailed only in the North American market for the 2005 and 2006 model years, the car earned the nickname "Saabaru". Although still produced in Japan by Subaru, Saab appointed Michael Mauer to commission the redesign of the front- and rear styling to better integrate the contrived Saab with the brand's owndesign language This totally restyled front fascia included new fenders and hood, with the rear gaining a redesigned tailgate and bumper. The interior received extra acoustic insulation over the Subaru, with particular attention paid to the firewall, carpeting, roof, and rear window seals.The main piece of the dash is unchanged from the Subaru versions. Saab also specified their own front seats incorporating active head restraints, unlike the fixed headrest seats in the equivalent Impreza WRX. The rear suspension arms are in aluminum, with further reduction of unsprung weight The steering had been made more responsive and exact in the Aero by using the steering rack shared by the STI version of the WRX, which features a faster 15.0:1 steering ratio, more rigidly mounted steering hardware and stiffer chassis bushings. Autoguide.com review on the Saab 92x Aero Top 3 Reasons to BuyAll-Wheel Drive – As can be expected of any Subaru-based vehicle, all-wheel drive is a the main reason many people buy the Saab 9-2x. Considered one of the best systems for wintery weather, those who opt for the 9-2x Aero also like the performance advantage of the AWD system.Practicality – The 9-2x is a wagon and therefore it can carry quite a bit of stuff for its size, especially with the rear seats folded down. The combination of practicality in a unique, fun-to-drive package enticed a lot of current owners.Price – Since the vehicle is officially branded as a Saab, a now defunct company, many people stay away from the 9-2x. This drives resale value down and a similar condition 9-2x is cheaper than its Impreza counterpart, despite all major components being the same. Best Bang for Your Buck This all comes down to what you are looking for in a used vehicle. If it is a practical, all-weather capable family car you are after, look for a 2005 9-2x Linear with the four-speed automatic. If it is a fun, rally-car-for-the-streets with some added functionality, go for the five-speed manual 9-2x Aero, especially the (Ultra-rare 2006 model with the larger 2.5-liter engine.)
