Actually, before they were Saab service of Orange, they were the service department of Howard Motorcar, which was the Saab dealer in Milford. Fantastic service department, and one of the worst salesrooms that I ever saw. The facility was nice, but their sales practices were poor. In '92 I was looking for a new Saab, and I had a firm price from the (now gone) Valenti Saab dealership in Wallingford. Howard (Milford) said that they would be glad to sell me a demo for the price I could get the new car up the road. I asked about Scarab Green, a popular color at the time. The salesman at Howard said that they charged a $3000 premium for Scarab Green, and that they had the largest stock of Scarab Green cars in the area. Anybody familiar with economics could figure out why they had so much stock.
They went out of business a few years later.
