    Thumbs up The SAAB 'Blackbird' video.

    This is the video that is becoming very popular on the net. It is not yet an official video release from SAAB, but it is getting a lot of positive press.
    I just hope that they release the Aero X, with-in my lifetime

    According to some saablogs:
    "The music is a mix between Nina Simone "Blackbird" and a track by Peace Orchestra."

    If you find the mp3, email me. I liked the track too.

    I rarely think of motorcycles without a little yearning. They are about moving, and humans, I think, yearn to move – it’s in our cells, in our desires. We quiet our babies with cyclic movement, and we quiet ourselves by going.

    They'll probably give some Saab story for why they can't release it in the US.

    Nina Simone always makes me think of

    Dude, are you kidding me! Have you read any reviews on the great turbo engines that they produce, or for that matter ever driven one. One of the favorite features with the SAAB turbos are the low end torque that they produce, (i.e., you don't have to over-rev the engine). Have you ever driven a WRX? Don't misunderstand me, the WRX is one of my favorite cars that I have ever driven, but you have to ring its neck to get any power out of it.
    Look at this video of a SAAB Viggen pull...http://youtube.com/watch?v=vc7ieh978WM


    And the RS8 comparison. I don't know. The Aero X came out at last years Geneva motor show and was voted the best concept car of '06.
