Obviously GM has some pricing issues.
Last month (June) the 9-2x accounted for 1/3 of all Saabs sold in the US, with $5000+ in incentives plus GM discount it made it a much more in demand vehicle. I mean hell, I got mine for cheaper than most 1-2 year old Subies.
Even with the GM discounts the 9-5 was down 34% for sedans and 21% for wagons. However, the 9-3SS was up 20% for sedan and 6% for the vert.
There was an article in today's WSJ about GM and Ford shifting stragety and focusing on lower sticker prices rather than big incentives--however I haven't got to read it yet.
It will be very interesting to see what they decided to do about pricing and how it will effect the Saab marquee.
Cheers
Chris
