Cut from Stiggy's posted link...
Saab had at one time planned to use the so-called GM Delta platform to develop a new small car, but abandoned the project because it felt the resulting car would not be sufficiently Saab-like. The GM Delta will form the basis of the next-generation Vauxhall/Opel Astra.
What? A hatchback with a Saab turbo engine and front wheel drive isn't Saab-like?????
Woo...another quote I found...
WITH THE PRODUCT-starved Saab part of General Motors reporting year-end losses upward of $200 million, both Scandinavian survivalists and Detroit management have put the newly planned high-volume 9-2 compact on a fast track. Tentatively scheduled as a 2006 model—but maybe as a 2005 entry—the 9-2 lineup will include a sportwagon plus three- and five-door hatchbacks similar in size to the Ford Focus and VW Golf. Ford Motor Co. is poised to join the trend. for the full story click below
THREE DOOR HATCHBACK!! YAY!!!
Sorry...I'm just impractical in that I LIKE two door cars so this is great news to me. :))))
