Hmmm..this begs the question...what makes a Saab a Saab? Is it how it's designed? Quirky, creative, outside-the-box, high performance design and engineering. Or is it because it's assembled by a crew of Swedes in Trollhattan? Would you have been any less pleased had your C900 rolled off an assembly line in Russelheim, Germany? Same exact car. And we'll assume, for the sake of argument, same build/assembly quality. In one aspect, your logical mind says "hmmm...same car, i should be just as pleased with it". The other portion of your mind illogically says "welll, i'm not so sure...i really like the idea Sven assembling my car as opposed to Wilhelm'. This is pretty much what it boils down to. - tex
