The 2009 Saab 9-7X is a Trailblazer in silk pajamas. The forbidden love child of GM's awkward relationship with Saab, and a symbol of the corporate chaos at the heart of their partnership, the Saab 9-7X shouldn’t work. But underneath all the badge engineered mediocrity is the quirky Swedish soul that just might make this the best GM SUV I’ve ever driven. In this Race to the Bottom episode of Regular Car Reviews, we'll see if this can crack my Top 5. I'll also talk about how Saab transformed the GMT360 Trailblazer into something shockingly refined, the restoration that brought this orphan SUV back to life, and why this “forbidden love child” couldn’t save a brand that deserved better. This is a story about GM, Saab, and a car that makes no sense, yet somehow makes all the sense in the world.
