The 9-7 was always the nicest looking of the GMT360 lot. And that's saying something. If only it came out in 2002, the same year as its TrailBlazer twin, it would've been better received.
It did come out in 2002, as an Oldsmobile bravada, the bravada switched over to Buick and Saab in 2004 and 2005 respectively, in a way the third generation bravada lasted through the 2008 model year.
