It's been about a year since Saab went bankrupt and the 2013 9-3 project moved to the recycle bin, and the "what could have been car" keeps coming back to haunt us.
Though it won't get too see the inside of a production line, the 2013 Saab 9-3 is already famous thanks to a bunch of photos that have surfaced the web lately. After Saabsunited.com revealed the first pictures of the actual car, SaabForum.nl brought up a few rendering of the car, which makes us regret even more that the post GM-era design never got the chance to see the light of day.
We've already discussed the 9-3's intriguing design, which combines Saab's typical modern architecture with classic cues coming from the 1980s and 1990s, such as the sloping roofline, the blackened pillars or the horizontal-trimmed front grille.
The 2013 Saab 9-3 was initially scheduled to debut at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show and should have drawn its power from an assortment of BMW engines.
