That is shocking. ^^ Eddy, in saying that though, the Saab website says the standard 9-3 Aero with the top of the range 188kW 2.8TV6 engine is $71K, so I wouldn't have thought that throwing an XWD system on that and increasing the engine output would get you much change out of $80k +. Still very expensive whatever way you slice it. ^ Ouch alright, yikes! That is shocking.
