IT LIVES!

Saab that is. The latest Car & Driver has an actual Saab ad. It's the "Nicht German" one which I've heard mentioned but it's the first time I've seen it. It positions Saab as sort of the anti-German, something different, an alternative, which I certainly think is exactly the direction they need to take. It's right up near the front of the magazine, kind of like they mean business. It their "25 Cars Worth Waiting For" piece they have none other than the Saab 92. If it looks anything like the picture, I'll pony up a deposit right now--just tell me where to send the check. It's definately not retro, but does show some slight 92 styling cues. It's coming in 2014, will initially have a Mini Cooper turbo engine but will later get a 3 cylinder and a diesel. It's going to be about $25K (probably for the top of the line turbo four). What really struck me was the matter of fact tone of the piece-no ifs, maybes or possiblys to be seen. The photo is simply labeled "2014 Saab 92"--doesn't say a thing about it being a concept or artists rendering. After all the speculation on what they're up to, it finally looks like Saab is on the move!
