ya I guess your right considering the Saab 9-3 is virtually the same as the malibu, pontiac g-6(or whatever its called) and one of the Saturn models(i want to say the aura). Also, I know the Swedes converted much of the Saab technology into the previous model CTS. Not to mention the H3 is based on the same truck frame as the Colorado. And if I remember correctly, the H2 was built on a Tahoe/suburban frame with a beefed up suspension (i dont think its changed much). But at least the emblems are different and they do mix and match engine types.

Although, I do love GM products for the price, and the fact that four members of the fam. are GM engineers or are retired GM engineers make me somewhat of fanboy. GM vehicles to date: 2001 Camaro SLP SS, 2007 Saab 9-3 Aero, and 2008 H3 Alpha. The rents love their XLR's and Sis, well, she's beating the hell out of her CTS-V. The rest of the fam. is loaded up on Vettes and a smattering GMC and Chevy trucks - but I'll look into those new models you were talking about. I hear the Cobalt is pretty innovative and fun.
