The beauty of SAAB is they offer BMW the option of electric AWD which is well under development. This would be HUGE for the Mini brand. Plus it allows them a safe "sand box" to test out the technology before they deploy it under the BMW brand. I really think BMW would be insane to pass up this opportunity. Based on what it would cost them to buy "very little". Based on the investment in new product they would have to make (tiny considering they already have ALL the platforms and powertrains) this situation presents BMW with a HUGE upside and a very small downside..tiny really. They would have much more to gain and much less to loose then just about any of the bidders.
