good indy shop, and I DIY.
GM isn't going away. Neither is Saab. The worst that will happen is that it will continue as part of GM. The best is that Renault or Fiat or another maker will buy it--hopefully one that understands marketing and how to build (well, re-build) the brand.
But mainly, there isn't anything else I like to drive as much as a Saab. BMWs are way over-rated, Volvos are boring, Audis are too expensive to fix, Mercedes are just well-engineered status symbols. Japanese cars are over-gimmicked blandmobiles, and domestics are even worse.
Call me crazy, but I like good seats and steering turbocharged 4 cylinders, and driving something a little more distinctive, even if it costs a bit more to run. And since I buy used and Saabs don't hold their value well (and I keep cars a long time), I figure it costs the same or less over time to have a Saab.
