If you are not interested in what changes GM is making at Saab please skip over these threads. I thought the purpose of the bulletin board was to allow open discussions of just about anything having to do with Saab. I know that my perception of the changes GM is making at Saab will play into my decision on if I will be buying another Saab or not.
I am concerned with what happens after a merger. I work for a large financial company and I can tell you from experience that those companies we buy undergo changes, some very significant.
On a positive note Saab's reliability has improved since GM takeover. I don't know if GM desires the credit or not since some of their domestic products still have poor quality (Cadillac Catera for instance).
Usually mergers result in a reduction in the total work force of the 2 companies. I am hoping that the Saab designers and engineers are still at work. I agree that GM may offer some improvements, but I have no desire in purchasing a Cadillac with a Saab nameplate.
