I wish I had a pithy comment to make about the imminent demise of Saab but I'm coming up short.

Remember Abba, the pop group? They also come from Sweden.

I wonder what the political demographics of Saab buyers are? I bet they were like those of Volvo.....liberals.

If that is the case, the libs are giving up the Saabs for....Prius’s??

They have been offered tens of millions over the years for a reunion tour and have always turned it down. Two married couples at the time, they long ago split and went their separate ways, and apparently have no desire to tour together again.

Can I match that with, “The workers feel they’ve been Saabed in the back”?

“I wonder what the political demographics of Saab buyers are?”

Most of the Saabs I have seen in my entire life were in Boston, specifically, Newton and/or the Cape. I believe they are considered a status symbol amongst the snooty elitist professorial crowd.

GOOD! Let the F*&kers FAIL! I have personally HATED all Saab vehicles since they DONATED vehicles to the North Vietnamese to use as vehicles to transport those bastards back and forth for all the "Peace Talks" in Paris! I remember that like it was yesterday! Sanctimonious pukes used to tool around like they were royalty, the press used to treat them like rock stars and Saab was GIVING them these vehicles as a "good will" gesture!

My hate for that company and they way they treated the communist NV's will NEVER end!

I thought Sweden was a socialist heaven. How can this happen?

I have owned 3 SAABs, and I loved all of them. My current ride is a ‘93 navy blue SAAB convertible 900 Turbo with 130,000 miles and she’s a beauty. I have told my family I want to be buried in it...

Actually he favors Porsches. Always wondered why he drove a Saab or BMW on his show. Must be product placement deals.
