Saab On The Brain?

Sorry for our rants about Saab recently (No Way), but what is up with Saab? How can this niche brand still be around?

Specifics? Sure, in August and September Saab sold 19 cars a day. Two months in a row! July? 22. Come on, Saab is totally, totally over. And there is no way any sane company is going to buy it. Just for comparison's sake, in the time that Saab sold 960-some cars, Toyota sold 300-THOUSAND (cash for clunkers helped this, sure, but come on! Saab sold fewer during the cash for clunkers shenanigans).

Anyway, Saab dead. Let's move on.

During the same two months in which Saab sold 960-ish Smart sold over 2,200! And how many Smart Cars have you really seen?

The Women's Handbags has some definite strong points.

The leather is nice and smooth.
Women's handbags are not the cheapest which adds to their exclusivity.
It goes without saying that they are made to the most exacting standards using the highest quality materials.
This extends the life of the bag which should give years of use and pleasure.

Thanks

You are funny with your stupid report.....I work at an auction house and see every kind of car roll through secondly I do condition reports on these cars, I will tell you first of all that the first comment posted is absolutly true! The ONLY reason someone would trade in their SAAB is because they are unshure of what is going to happen with the brand. Secondly, SAABs build quality WAS on par with mercedes benz and well aheadof Audi and VW they use the cheapest shit I have ever seen with all their generic chrome and pieces falling off in the interior. The new SAABs are of BMW quality...Not great but far ahead of toyotas lexus audi vw, you probley think SAABs are built here in the USA, they are still built in sweden it is unfortunate that they are using GM motors, hopefully with koenigsegg they will re open the SAAB engine plant and use the die hard B234/5 engines. Also remember NOT everyone wants a mass produced car.

THERE IS A BIG DIFFARANCE BETWEEN SAAB AND TOYOTA MOST PEOPLE WHO BUY SAAB DON'T HAVE CLUNKERS TO TRADE IN I JUST HOPE SAAB GETS BACK TO THE CLASS IT WAS IN BEFORE GM MADE IT CHEAP
