I'd rather know why the car is special and unique

After all it is the car that is being sold. Of course if it is not special and unique there is a problem. But the point is that it is the product that matters which seems lost to modern marketing. Although that is something interesting about SAAB in the past. They focused on the product. When most advertisers wouldn't use more than a couple sentences they'd fill a page with text full of product detail.
Sure there is something powerful about the do your own thing "make your own road" sort of SAAB image. And it does apply to many SAAB owners. Nothing wrong with cultivating it.
However, there is also something illogicial about a campaign for "people who choose to live life their own way and make their own choices...." that basically says people who make their own choices should buy this because that is what people who make their own choices do.
Regardless good luck. Sorry but we finally got a TV again last fall after a number or years without so can't help you with that one.
