Saab had their chance to prove themselves since "the Evil General" basically left them alone for the first ten years of ownership. Saab squandered that opportunity and didn't really come up with anything innovative. Heck, they didn't really come out with anything innovative back in the "heyday" of the late 80's when they should've been designing a replacement C900. We ALL know that Saab is entirely too conservative and doesn't make enough changes... (Gosh... The customers might COMPLAIN!! ;-)
We'll be lucky if Saab survives intact for the next decade... and a lot of it has nothing to do with Saab per se. There are simply too many car companies competing for a small "near luxury" market. The other players (especially the Japanese) have deeper pockets and better name recognition.
Meanwhile, some old Saabers cling to the dream that they'll get a car from Saab with C900 funkiness, 9000 roominess, Sonett handling, and an affordable price. Keep dreaming.
