Saab claims that the Griffin Edition carries the most luxurious appointments standard of any car the company has ever made. Luxury touches include a rear parking assist system, heated, auto-dimming and folding power mirrors and lots of leather. The "Aero-inspired" leather seats come in either Black with Parchment inserts or Parchment with Black inserts and feature accent color stitching. That stitching is also found on the steering wheel, shifter and handbrake. You'll also be treated to some chic floor mats with grey piping and high-gloss interior trim.
Outside, the Griffin Edition will be recognizable by its five-spoke, 17-in. wheels, matte chrome grille and headlight frames, rear spoiler and a Griffin badge on each side behind the front wheels. SportCombi models will move the spoiler from the trunk to the roof and feature matte chrome roof rails. The Griffin Edition will come in either Polar White or one of six metallic colors: Jet Black, Snow Silver, Nocturne Blue, Pepper Green, Carbon Grey, and Glass Grey. Aside from the metallic paint, the only options on the Griffin Edition are ventilated seats and a navigation system.
Powering the 9-5 Griffin Edition is Saab's venerable 2.3L 260-hp turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine, backed up by either a five-speed manual or five-speed automatic transmission at no extra cost. The cars should begin turning up on dealer lots next month and will start at $42,775 for the sedan and $44,045 for the SportCombi wagon.
