I can see the USA-isation of Saab simply by the non-offering of a hatchback these days. Anyone with knowledge of the European market knows that the hatchback is the single most popular body style here. Yet GM wants to produce 'sedans' it seems. Utterly blinkered thinking. The apparent anticipated demand just for the 'wagon' 9-3 in Europe shows for example where GM has been losing sales ( even though it's *not* a hatchback) . Then again, GM as a corporation simply seems to be dumb. Common in modern corporates where individual radical thinking seems to be suppressed. Welcome to the demise of Saab. BTW - I bet GM are so dumb that they don't have a single employee perusing this NG for ideas ! There's nothing better than dumb ppl than even dumber ppl. Graham
