As a purchaser of a 2008 Saab, I've got to say, I feel screwed. Three (ok, 2.5) Saab dealers have shuttered in my area, my 9-5 has had 4 problems in 5000 miles and servicing used to be great. Now, I'm figuring I'll sell it asap take a loss and try to find a 2 year old BMW 5 series wagon (man if you thought Saabs depreciated, look at those prices- priced like a new Subaru) -which I'm wishing I'd bought 3 months ago instead. I was just trying to get one last great Saab- and avoid the BMW stigma. I'm an optimist -but GM is going to have a heck of a time selling this brand in this economy.
GM- I think did save Saab from ANOTHER fate, perhaps, but I'm bummed with them now. There was so much about Saab to exploit. It should have been THE go-to for eco, well designed, fun cars. High mileage, Scandinavian style with well resourced green materials. -The Prius of automakers? Not now.
