I am not 100% trusting of the source here, but I don't see why he'd make this up so I guess I'll believe it... for now.

Okay okay. Renco doesn't have the greatest environmental record. Kind of sucks. But whatever people. We need to not get stuck on things they've done in the past and totally dump on them. I think we need to give Renco a chance here. Maybe they're purchasing Saab so they can work on turning themselves around and buying a well-known environmental company like Saab might help them. Obviously Koenigsegg would have been a Cindarella story of an owner, but we can't always get what we want. Let's be happy that Saab is SURVIVING right now. They have some exciting models coming out in the next year, and I don't see the design and production moving from Sweden anytime soon. I don't see Rennert going to Sweden to find ways to mess with the environment either. Is Renco just funding Saab and letting the people in Sweden run the show, or do you think they're going to step in and start imposing rules and impacting car design?

This is kind of a grab bag post I'm writing at 2am. Just throwing out thoughts/ideas, so don't go too nuts if it's not all that coherent... Moral of the story though, I think we need to be accepting and supportive of Saab's new ownership (for now), if this is legitimate information. Wait to see if they mess things up with Saab before jumping down their throats.
