No. All Saabs are inline 4 cyl engines while all Subarus are flat (like a box) opposing 4 cyl engines some times called a "pancake motor" Early Beetles and Porsche engines are Boxters. Porches can be 4 or 6 cylinder boxters. VW's and Porches were air cooled. Subaru and newer Porches are water cooled. Porches also have 6 cylinder inline engines. I've owned them all. I absolutely loved the GM 3800 series ll motors. A very capable and virtually bullet proof 6 cylinder. I actually thought of taking out the V8 in a Yukon for example and putting in a GM 3800 series ll transaxle assembly. I like the size of the Yukon and for my purposes running down to the store in 2wd with the 3800 to grab a fifth of milk or some tuna for the cats or something would do just fine and I would benefit from the better MPG :)

Too bad GM didn't listen lol.
