..uhm.. lets see.. the massive ad campaigns had nothing to do with it, eh? That the 9-5 is a good car in it own right?
I don;t thingk the droping of the hatch had anything to do with the sales success of the 9-5. It si just a good car and Saab has better marketing than they used to.
In the August 2001 "Car" Magazine, there is the line "Amazingly, six of the worlds top ten (best sellign autos) are European Hatchbacks....( and that includes rankings of all car/truck sales with the Ford F-150 the number two global seller.)
vw Golf 1.1mil
F-150 1.0 Mil
Opal Astra 929k
Ford Focus 926k
Renault Magane 730k
there is not one Eastern Rim car in the bunch.. A toyota comes in 11th.
So wtf... GM strikes again? Hopefully not..
GM lost market share form the 60's right up through the late 90's.. could it be that they have absolutely no clue for what makes a winner?
