Your departure from the brand will no doubt be duplicated many more times as many of us seek to replace classic 900-9-3s with something better than a rebadged subie or FWD BMW wannabe. I know I bought my last SAAB since there is nothing SAAB is producing that holds any interest for me. The fact that GM is pushing gas guzzling SUVs insteads of AWD w a hatch just goes to show how morally bankrupt and market ignorant GM is. Gas prices will not be comming down and SUVs will soon go the way of gas guzzling cars of the 70s. Instead of looking for quarterly profit increases by turing SAAB into another Cadillac SUV sales machine, GM should use SAAB to offer hybrid high efficency performance oriented vehicles with styling or utility.
I will buy an AWD MB, JAG, BMW or Audi before I buy a GM SUV or a SUBIE with a Griffin affixed to the boot.
