Whilst the newspapers and web columnists have been talking us down, you’ve been hearing plenty from me about the reasons I believe Saab will survive it’s current difficult times – brand, factory, product and people.

From Justinn, via comments….. I would love to see more pictures of the NA Spec 9-5 SportCombi! Ask and you shall receive. Click and you shall enlarge 🙂 — I’ll have HEAPS more photos from Saturday at the SOC, tomorrow (getting late here….)
There’s an event on Facebook called Save Saab. We didn’t create it, but I’m sure all Saab employees and fans appreciate the fact that it’s there. The event is tomorrow and the location – the whole world. It’s a non-geographic event. A show of support. Go to the event page and click “I’m attending” to show your support. We really

Hey all. I’ve spent the morning having my mind blown to pieces looking at some electrical integration setups that are used for testing cars, and testing changes to cars (from the electronics point of view). More on that later. Whilst exiting the building, I was confronted by a number of Saab 9-5 SportCombis in different colors, a few of which
I’m spending quite a lot of time at the moment just visiting various departments within Saab, getting to know what they do.

The wind tunnel can be
Today was press day #1 at the NYIAS and even though Saab’s press conference isn’t scheduled until tomorrow, there was a flurry of activity at the Saab stand with a steady stream of visitors all day (and whilst I don’t want to sound smug, I think there are a few manufacturers who wish that was the case at their stand).
