Carbon Fiber Accessories for the Cigar Afficianado
If you're a connoisseur of cigars and into cars, take note. Xikar has released a line of their cigar accessories like a windproof lighter, cutter and case with carbon fiber accenting. Squint and it'll match the faux carbon fiber in your Turbo X or pony up for the carbon-bedecked body kit from Hirsch and really impress your friends with a fetish for the dark woven stuff.

We've just gotten access to additional information surrounding the aerodynamic testing and quality measures undertaken by Swiss Saab tuning house Hirsch-Performance for their aerodynamics and appearance package for the latest-generation Saab 9-3. Combine that with a look designed by the Saab 9-3's own designer Taras Czornyj and we're most impressed with the OEMplus theme being taken to an all-new level in the field of aftermarket aero. To accent this new info, we've gone ahead and photoshopped numerous body and wheel color options based on Saab's own order guides and Hirsch's wheel finish listing. Enjoy more after the jump and in the accompanying picture gallery.
Dig deep and you'll find there are up sides to a diving market.

This particular automatic Turbo X SportCombi with only 25 miles on it and every option save Navi is listed on Ebay
Are you a 'dashstroker'? The term means you take pleasure in the touch, feel and look of your car's interior. Cruising along in a vehicle, you might appreciate the soft-touch plastic of a dash top or curse the faux-wood trim in a rental. We're admitted dashstrokers, and in as much are big fans of Hirsch Performance's leather bits like their instrument cluster surrounds for the 9-3. In this month's news rotation from the Swiss Saab tuner, they've announced a few new products including carbon fiber-look leather for center console and door trim inserts (Turbo X owners take note).
