I can see replacing my 9K with a used Saab, but when my wife's 9-5 (now 10 years old at 120K ) hits replacement time we'll be looking elsewhere. I suspect it will be a diesel or a hybrid, as either would suit her needs just fine. While she appreciates the Saab virtues, she's not a car person and would be pretty happy in an Escape Ecoboost or even a Prius V.
Saab, no matter what it does, won't come back in any meaningful way. It could maybe fill a niche with some of EV or hybrid, but I'm not holding my breath. And I don't buy new cars anyway.
One of my problems is that there isn't much out there that I really want to buy. And my 9K, at 203K, still has a few years of life left, especially since I don't put a lot of miles on it.
