The concept may be good, but the GM bean counters will insist on using common components to reduce the cost. I looked at the H3 Hummer and the same electrical components that are having problems in the Saabs were already broken in the demo H3. The salesman proudly proclaimed how all of the failing electrical components would be replaced under warranty - not a good sign of what could happen to a new Sonnett. >
