Which one?

I picked the current one.

giant_mtb

Current as well.  The new front end is just too "busy" for my liking.

Mak450

I may be in the minority, but while I always thought the 9-3 was a very good looking car I also thought the front end lacked a little character, so new one for me.

Current, fo sho. It is t3h s3x. Update is t3h sUxx0rs.

I like the current one, but the new one has so much more character.

I don't care about all that shit.  I'll be going to college to get an education at a cost to my parents.  I'm not going to fool around.

The soon-to-be does look good.  But the current one is better, as is the trend nowadays.  Slow regression in the name of progress.

I like the newer one, but I have always been a fan of the current one as well.

I have the current one, but I like the upcoming one better.

I love the current one, but I'm saving my judgement for when I see a wide out shot of the new one.

Current for me as well.  It's one of the best looking affordable (relatively, that is) mainstream cars on the market IMO.

That's on my list as well.  I said the Saab was "one of the best looking", not "the best looking".  It's a big difference Chrysler boy.  :lol:

Upcoming one for me, I like the current one but the new one is much more aggressive.
