As for Saab I believe they rightly figured out it's never made money so why will it start now???
But Saab? I mean, that was such a good car. It helped support lots of mechanics and their families while trying to keep it repaired and on the road. I remember one dealership in California which sold BMWs, Fiats, and Saabs. He said they also were back for recalls and repairs in that order. Seemed hard to find a car that needed more attention than a Fiat, but the Saab did. Even Jerry Seinfeld drove a Saab for awhile. seem to remember that car spent a fair amount of time giving tow trucks business as well. Don't you see how good they were for the economy?
