I know a lot of purists will absolutely hate this, but I think it's a really good thing. It shows some creative thinking. I'm just glad GM is thinking about how to grow the brand and not planning an exit strategy.
I really think Subaru and Saab are a good fit, slightly off-center image and solid rally history. At least take solace in the fact that this means the return of a hatchback! Plus, the last sentence alluding to a four-wheel-drive "rally car" is really cool.
I also think it's good that DK-E is pushing for the 9-7.
I just want to see Saab survive and prosper. I don't need to love every product they build, as long as they build at least one model I want.
