That has to be one of the most ridiculous posts that I've ever read. To paraphrase, you think that BMWs are great cars, but because of some stupid preconcieved notion that BMW owners are... what? snobby?, you would limit yourself to a lesser car such as a Subaru or (my gawd!) a Hummer? So you'd leave the SAAB ranks because of infiltration of GM and then run out and buy a 100% GM Hummer? A Hummer H2 is entirely a status symbol with no redeeming values. It is a POS off road and is to big to have anything close to road manners and a gas hog to boot. I don't get it at all. -Fred W
