Assume the cars were put up for bids

As the article notes, the cars were obtained as a 3 year lease deal. I would assume this was obtained after an open bid open to any maker. The problem may have been that the bid specification set conditions that could only be met by SAAB but that seems unlikely. As I recall, before SAAB, the Aspen police had other non-US cars. May be a case that practicality outweighs patriotism?
