    Oh. My. Gawd.
    Please stop this madness and let Saab die already.
    Wait.
    This isn't Saab anymore, right?

    It can't possibly any less Saab than it was with GM.

    So on that basis it's not that bad.

    Probably.

    Probably.

    Saab is hosed.

    Things still not progressing adequately.

    Apparently.

    Saab says production will not resume August 9 as hoped

    Saab should partner with SpaceX and build cars for Mars. That would make them special and lustworthy.

    Wait.

    Nah, they still wouldn't be as interesting as proper Saabs...

    Things looking even worse. If such a thing is possible.

    Swedish debt authority poised to seize Saab assets

    Looks like Saab is finally mullered. Well, sold anyway.

    In my opinion, it's just prolonging the inevitable.

    I realize that Saab is a historic brand, but I can't think how it can compete with established brands- especially in these economic times.

    Just close it already- bouncing from company to company is ridiculous.

    Saab sale not quite done yet, apparently.

    GM taking issue with Saab ownership change

    EDIT I say we should buy it and make it UCP's own car company.
