I miss SAAB but they died way before bankruptcy. I had their last model 93 that was basically a reskinned Chevy Malibu. And it was very different from the post GM buyout 93 and 900s that I loved.
During Covid I got an idea to get a Saab project car and a 2001 93 cost $11k. So I guess there are a few crazy Saab lovers out there.
I hope they make a comeback. I still don’t know quite what it was about them that made me like them. It wasn’t just their oddness of being the Platypus of cars.
- alkonaut 3y agoThe Epsilon platforms was used for a lot of cars, some Opels/Saab etc. I still feel the 9-3 had a lot of SAAB to it in every detail. Using platforms and engines doesn't make the end product just a badged Chevy. For a proper SAAB rebadge, look at the 9-2X. They didn't even try with that one.
- prepend 3y agoI had one and it was terrible compared to the previous gen 93.
- twunde 3y agoYou can find quite a few for cheaper, especially in the Northeast. My current Saab is nearing its end of life, and I'm _so_ tempted to get another one, even if it doesn't really match my lifestyle anymore
