I have two thoughts.

Damn thats beautiful and Saab as in the guys who made jets for various European nations during the cold war? Is this a Toyota situation where they make cars as well as military equiptment.

SAAB Automobile is the company that built the cars, their parent company was SAAB AB the aerospace and defence company that is still going these days.

SAAB Automobile was sold to GM back in 1989, and the SAAB 9000 series was produced under GM leadership

Honestly I'd kill for a digital dashboard that easy to read. Most are way worse.

So does this one.

Dangle a tin can on a string out the window and listen to the rate of the jingle jangle on the pavement?

Hard disagree. It is SO much faster for me to read a digital number readout than a analogue one.

This isn't touch screen controls (which are terrible). It's a readout.

What's wrong with that?

I’d kill for one that was positioned so I could see it. I keep my steering wheel low and my hands cover the speedometer.

You’re thinking of cornbus

They're notorious money pits, partially because they're also notoriously stupid to work on.

In my opinion, the worst part about new cars is that they are essentially tracking devices and some of them can be remotely controlled. Nice!

What are the things that you don't like? I'm in the market for a new (used) vehicle and Mazda seems to top a lot of charts for the past several years but I've never driven one.

I've put 80k miles on one Kia and just got a Hyundai with 100k miles on it. I've not once had something need replacement that wasn't an expected wear item at about the expected interval. I also witnessed a Kia get pinned against the median on the beltline by a speeding car that lost control and while it was definitely totaled, the occupants were uninjured.

So my annecdotal experience has been quite positive

Mazda MX5. I have a 2019 and it's simple. Heated seats, blindspot mirrors, backup camera, led headlights. Absolute joy to drive.

No other tech that tracks you as far as I'm aware.

On my vehicle, those type of controls are moved to the steering wheel

The Civic's split dash was apparently generally hated, but I really liked it, for just that reason... The year after mine they switched it back to a single cluster, which I think is unfortunate
