Yes, lets give Youngman and Pang GM's technology GREAT IDEA.

The saab sweeden company is struggling cause look at the piece of crappy vehicles they are building  thats the reason why they went bankrupt, I really use to loveeee saab but now hells no I wouldn't even look twice at saab or even give them the time of day...bye bye crappy saab

[SaabChrysler52]

GM should have licensed the use of their technology to Youngman and Pang Da so Saab could have survived. What an absolute disgrace and shame. Saab should have lived. Shame on GM's decision to deny an ailing former brand the opputinity to attain the aid it so desperately needed.

RIP Saab

BEAUTIFUL! However, also way over priced! The sticker needs to be about 10K-12K less and the negotiated sell price should end up around 33K-36K on the top of the line model. The only way Saab can begin to sell more cars here in the USA is by being more competitive in terms of price and by advertising more. They need to stop trying to compete with the likes of Audi, Cadillac and Volvo and market themselves as an alternative option to Jeep, GM, Ford and Chevrolet.

Hopefully, SAAB will have the opportunity to be SAAB again by purifying itself of GMness. This report shows that concept loud and clear. 20 years ago it didn't exist when SAAB dusted off the German makes in a highly unique and distinctice characteristic way in an addictive and ingratiating way.

@TurboFuss1 ALL GM vehciles have the same audio system across the board. From chevy to cadillac. Back in 2002 Corvette owners complained about the cavalier having the same stereo deck and sound system, which GM soon made its own stereo deck specially made for the Corvette

@vaiol123 SAAB is GM, they cannot compete with Buick.

@LexusLawyer. And you're wrong, SAAB is still around and it looks better for the brands future then it has done in the last 6 months. Likely two new Chinese owners with deep pockets. Hopefully SAAB will be around for years to come!
