Technicaly yeah its a six speed 5 forward gears and 1 reverse gear :lol:

Why 5 speed and Sweden? Is it a volvo gearbox?

its built by saab. the ss/sc's tranny is directly from saab.

Volvo = Ford Motor Company

Saab = General Motors

If you've ever taken an LSJ apart, you will see SAAB labled on MANY parts

Oh i see, the saab 9-3 2.0T has 5MT also. So the new SS is like a 9-3 with lower price and weight but higher power? great. Now they need to make a convertible version.
