Honestly when I look at BMWs platforms, direction and powertrains, and the fact that they have saturated the BMW name with models + the roaring success they have made of Mini...it is a match made in heaven. I think BMW could do wonderful things with SAAB, and I think in 10 years they could get SAAB north of 500,000 units. Why did BMW not bid until bankruptcy? The reason IMHO is GM had equity and they wanted GM OUT as a partner. SAAB will allow them to offer a different premium product, at a lower price point with front/awd directly aimed at AUDI without diluting the BMW brand... it is IMHO effin PERFECT. PLUS BMW has a HUGE aerospace heritage as well..and it is possible they already have joint ventures with SAAB AG through their Aerospace business. So branding should not be a problem.
