There's an article in today's Seattle Times (taken from the Dallas Morning Star) about the effect on Saab of GM ownership. It's in the "Motoring" section, probably available on their website too. I made myself a bet on whether they could get through the article without using the word "quirky". I won. (They couldn't). I'm not sure I like being called part of a "cult", although I have to agree with their observation that "Saabs are relished for their unorthodox blend of style, performance and safety." So why "unorthodox"? I suppose because each of our main competitors are identified with only one of the three qualities---BMW (performance; Volvo (safety), and Audi (style). I'll take all three any day. Now if they could just work on the reliability. . .(Although I have absolutely no complaints so far---just speaking from past experience with Saab 99's).
