You know him as bretfraz, detailer...

We know him as bretfraz, automotive journalist. Check out Bret's debut article - a review of the 2003 Saab 9-5.

Just wanted to say great job, Bret! Next issue will have the '03 Bentley Arnage article...hehe!

Bret,
Nice article! Not to pick nits, but don't you yourself own a Saab 9-5?
Just kidding, of course, I am sure you are unbiased. Very informative and well written.

My original 1986 Saab 9000S (the first year of the model) rust bucket, winter queen was towed to the mechanic last night. Oil leak all over the engine the brake fluid light indicator on.

Saab has come a looooooooooooong way since then; ever since GM got a hold of them.

Great lease deals on them now.

Nice job Bret.

It's a good read, however I don't see the word "suXx0r" anywhere.
