yeah, I thought it was a done deal with that Koeniggseggseggeggkegg guy. I didn't ever hear about that deal dying in November. I never really cared that much for Saabs and i think their brand sort of lost their way over the last 20 or so years, but it is too bad to see Pontiac, Saturn, Saab, and the others bite it in the same year. There is a part of me that is a little happy because there was something sort of snobby about the company like "we're born from jets, we're better than you," so in that way their comeuppance is sort of fun. who would have guessed in 1950 Saab would be dead and VW would be one of the biggest manufacturers 60 years later...
