I am ready for the replies > in my flameproof suit :-) GM didn't take over in 1993, they bought half of the company in 1990 and bought the rest much later. The Type 4 project which resulted in Saab 9000 was planned in 1974 after the oil crisis and the first Saab 9000 from 1985 was a hatchback. It had no GM content whatsoever. It had also very little in common with the rest of the Type 4 cars, apart from wheelbase dimensions and styling in some cases.
