Remarkable support for Saab

If GM kills Saab I will never buy a GM again!!!!!!

You're welcome. Saab is a large family, we fight together. Griffin Up!

I think its beautiful to see the global Saab community come together like this and support the brand and Trollahattan. Nothing like this was seen with Pontiac, Hummer, Saturn, Oldsmobile...etc.

Our loyalty to the brand has reached an epic peak, but not a ceiling. Should Saab survive in the hands of Spyker or Genii/Ecclestone, I think its pretty obvious that our collective buying considerations and devotion to Saab will result in a considerable sales jump. The momentum will spread beyond loyal lines and new customers will take notice of something special we've known all along: a "Saab" Saab is more than just a niche, it is a way of life.

SAVE SAAB!!!

Tolle Fahrzeuge die von echten Enthusiasten für alle Welt sichtbar zur Schau gestellt wurden und auch noch werden. Sehr deutlich wird auch, dass sich Eigner anderer Fabrikate mit SAAB-Enthusiasten solidarisch erklären - beispielsweise "I like SAAB"-Aufkleber an ihren Autos befestigt haben (sogar entdeckt an Ferrari, Jaguar und Porsche).

Nice to read some good news at this page!

Griffin up!

saab is the only luxery car GM have . I thing theay kill them self !

It is a pleasure supporting you! And a convoy is just another good excuse for a drive with the Saab ;-) Griffin Up, all!

I'm proud to have participated in the weekend's convoys, and glad to hear that you guys appreciated our efforts. It was an incredible week and the photos and videos are still streaming in.

Saab is the best!
Griffin UP!

I have owned three Saabs. I love my Saab, and will never drive another car again.. and I'm hoping I don't even have to consider anything less!

Collectively, like SAAB, we are also "Born from Jets"...we are "Born to Fight".

америкосы козлы ничего святого.Надо бы поддержать Saab,если саабовцы выберутся из этой шняги подумаю о покупки Convertible.

History is not done every day. Can not simply be closed SAAB. Attempts are not counted - the result is important!

Please SAAB, I hope that you have good news in the pipe since you now have entered your first update on the site since december 21.....fingers crossed! Saab UP! Spyker Up!

Yes!
Thoose rallys is just fenomenal. And...If you just get the chance to "Show me that 9-5!" I'll come and get it myself in Trollhättan

I LOVE SAAB BUT IF GM DOES NOT HELP SAAB STAY ALIVE!!!I WILL NEVER I MEAN NEVER TALK OR DRIVE A GM CAR OR TRUCK!!!! THE ONLY U.S.A COMPANY THAT I WILL DRIVE IS FORD!!!GM YOU SHOULD HAVE DIED A LONG TIME!!! SOON DEATH WILL COME FOR YOU!!!LONG LIVE SAAB!!!

+1 on the GM boycott I will never buy another GM product or comercial truck if Saab is Killed by GM

An '83 Saab 900 saved my father's life.
Thanks to all Trollhattan Saab people.
Then we had 9.
Now I drive a Saab.
I'm waiting to know if I can drive my next Saabs for the rest of my life.

as a previous saab owner i am gutted that saab will vanish and so pleased
that so many people from round the world are supporting if saab
my next car will be a saab as long as they still exist

SAVE SAAB

This rally call deserves attention. No one cared when Oldsmobile, Pontiac, or Saturn closed.

Keep Saab alive. It is something special.

Completly agree with Kenneth Slade, if GM kills Saab I will never buy a GM again !
SAVE SAAB !!!

америкосы козлы ничего святого.Надо бы поддержать Saab,если саабовцы выберутся из этой шняги подумаю о покупки Convertible.

I fully agree with the previous comments. It does not make any sense that someone i going to kill a product that has hundreds of thousands committed clients! SAAB has enormous support also from Finland.

Long Live SAAB

Saab was, is and will be a unique brand with unique cars for unique people. A legacy that money driven GM bosses will never understand. The only thing I answer them is:
'NOLI TURBARE SAABEM MEUM' drawn from Archimedes means 'Never disturb/destroy my SAAB'

SAAB hat ein wohltuendes, sich aus dem Großkonzern-Einheits-Brei abhebendes Design. Ein Fahrzeug für Individualisten. Ich hoffe sehr, mir auch mein nächstes Fahrzeug bei SAAB aussuchen und kaufen zu können.

I'm joining the SAAB Convoy NYC! I hope to see all the East coast enthusiasts there!

GM should have gone under years ago, they make crap@@ Saab is WAY to nice of a car for them to produce.

The SAAB is not only a car, it's an extension of our livingroom. We drive with pride, something that has been designed to last with style. It's not a car,- it's a SAAB.

Griffin up!

Sono un utente Saab..., di sicuro non comprero' mai una Opel o una Gm in generale....quindi,.... o Saab o oltra marca che non sia GM!!!!!

Dear GM,

Please do not take any hard decision that you may later regret.
Take a decision that you will be proud of. Take a decision that respects all those who have chosen to buy these excellent cars. Take a decision that respects true motoring heritage, history and value. SELL SAAB! Forget about closing this magnificent brand. If GM does not show respect to all those Saab owners out there, then we will never show respect to any GM product again!

Thank you for listening GM!

I have owned a Saab 96, 99, 900, and currently own a 9-3. The Saabs
I have driven have been remarkably reliable and great preforming cars.
Please sell the brand to Spyker.

As a child I remember the old two strokes \ v4's and loved them! Then one day a 900 combi coupe drove up the road past my house..listening to that pleasant growling exhaust note...and seeing that hatch shape, I decided... that's my car!!

I now own a NG900 and i love it! Ice and snow?..no problems?...102000miles and still going strong! If Gm DO sell SAAB..bring back that hatch back shape in your upcoming vehicles!!
Love the new 2010-NG 9-5 car...but its not a hatch back!

Please SAAB..bring back the Hatch!!

GRIFFIN UP G.M!!..DO THE DEAL AND SAVE SAAB!!

I have driven 6 different SAABs since 1982, either purchased directly or leased thru different employers. SAAB was my very first new car purchase and the ONLY one since. My wife and I purchased two new SAABs over the last two years (9-5 Aero wagon and 9-3 sedan) and were about to buy a third when GM collapsed. We would be heartbroken if it's impossible to structure a deal with someone to maintain, indeed resurrect, this iconic automaker restoring it's legacy of innovation and value. I agree with Kenneth, I would never buy a GM product if their mismanagement results in the dissolution of SAAB.

I also pledge to never buy a gm car if you kill Saab! Please sell Saab to another company! Thank You
-Rob

It's very beautiful to see this enthousiasm. The saab community is like a big family and we all like this.
Thank you for this operation.

Save saab !

if GM kills saab i shall never ever consider a gm again saab was ruined by GM and they are being selfish of not selling it off. they know that the New 9-5 will be a great hit

Good, we are many.
SAAB, we needs you.

After Saab factory in Trollhätan (Sweden), GM wants to close Opel factory in Antwerp (Belgium). These guys are disgusting. They did not do anyhting to promote this unique cars brand. I deeply hope Saab will be saved and continue to design many unique cars. Thanks to these enthusiasts for their great support. Griffin up! Cheers from Belgium :-)

I'm not a current SAAB owner but have been a huge fan. Like Kenneth^, however slightly differently, I will NEVER buy GM for even considering killing SAAB. This is a perfect example that the people running GM are businessmen first, and car people...well, they're JUST plain businessmen.

We had a small Saab support convoy in Adelaide South Australia,
but our enthusiasm was great. Saab must survive!

Saab Up! Griffin Up!

Kenneth > Why buy a GM car in the first Place?
SAAB is different, SAAB have always tried to do the best of what bad they had after GM bought it. I would buy SAAB anytime. as a Swede there is always Volvo or SAAB to choose from but Ill never buy a GM car.
I had an old Opel Manta A and it wasn´t any GM. GM also killed Vauxhall in the UK!

This loyalty truly rocks! Saab forever. We all shall keep this legacy alive forever.

I've owned Saabs since 1987 and now have an 08 93 Sport Combi. I will never buy another GM product, but will promise to buy a new Saab when the GM era has past and Saab returns to its past glory. Save SAAB!

i think that this support is great. is there going to be any events held in melbourne, australia????????

I am a Saaboholic

Since 1947 when a company called Svenska Aeroplan Aktiebolaget decided to design and manufacture automobiles, has there ever been a group of automobiles that are befitting the name "SAAB." People around the globe who have been fortunate enough to own and drive one of these fine cars immediately recognize that there was a great deal of careful thought, safety innovation, aircraft engineering and respect for the driver in each model. Let anyone who doubts what the name SAAB means to the worldwide automotive industry take a look at all of the "Save Saab" convoys around the world! As we have all heard before, Saabs come from the State of Independence and once the company is independent from GM, nothing will stop this Swedish automaker from returning to the status that Svenska Aeroplan Aktiebolaget originally created. Thank you Saab for producing the best cars on earth...and thank you loyal Saab enthusiasts for keeping the faith and demonstrating in the strongest means possible that Saab is worth fighting for because we all want it to live on!!! Are you listening GM?!?!?!

Awesome... Save Saab in Taiwan Convey has been post to Saab news. I am one of enthusiastic Saab owners in Taiwan sitting on first row. We gathering around 180 cars on runway last Sunday.
Griffin UP!!!

Saab must be saved! If Saab survives I will buy another Saab as soon as I can! And we should have a big rebirth party in Sweden! The Griffin as Phoenix!

I purchased a SAAB due to its uniqueness and to help GM. I purchased a Saturn to buy American. Now GM has cost me $000s. Great thank you from a company that did not have the ability to manage a company and its market leadership !! I can say more but it would be bleeped!!!

SAAB support in the Czech Republic!

I love SAAB since I was a child, because it was allways easy for me to find one in the mass of cars you see on a parking area :-) But in the last 15 years, I lost SAAB a little bit out of sight, because there were no advertisements in Germany (Why not???). Only if I went to other country like Czech there was one. So when I got the chance to get a SAAB via my company last year I tooked a SAAB 9.3 SportCombi and you know what? That was the best decision I could made. I think this car is eqal to a BMW 3 or an Audi A4 ( I compare it very often with my colleagues and are suprise how good a SAAB is) I like my SAAB and I'm still hoping I can get anotherone in 2 yeras again.

Still hoping and loving... Catrin

Freaking GM move your mind !!!!

Great cummunity these Saab people. Sad to see such an excellent brand being consequently destroided by GM - but also by own mistakes. Only an enthusiast will be able to recover the image and strength of that car maker. Small car manufacturers need to be quicker, cheaper, more innovative and creative than the big ones - otherwise there will be no future - good luck for that!

SAAB its the best car! GM its crazy company bussines politic! We must support the SAAB!, we fight togethe all over the world!!SAVE SAAB

GM YOU HAVE LOST YOUR DAM MIND!!!

DEAR GM - MOVE YOUR MIND - SELL SAAB.
You never understand the soul of this company and why the customers love them. The only reason that you bought them was to became the biggest company in the world. But you never use there technologies for your cars (like with Opel). Your american cars have still old technology inside and the quality is to bad for the European market. But you never try to let SAAB grow up because you are still thinking that European customers will also buy American cars, but thats wrong. I guess if you compare how many cars SAAB and Opel where sold in Europe and how many Buick, Cadillac, Chevreolet (not original Daewoo), GMC and Hummer the american cars losing. So let SAAB try to live, without you, if you think it's not possible don't care, the market will show you. Or do you have fear?????

Larga vida a Saab para que a todos aquellos que disfrutamos de la conducción de este magnífico vehículo dure mucho tiempo.

Great cars, great community spirit, and great people in Trollhattan. and all around the world. I'm in love with my Turbo-X @ 27K miles. Beautiful car!

Saab Up!

I continue to hope GM comes to its senses and sells SAAB. I can't imagine driving anything else--I'm on my third 9.3 a sport combi, which I love!

Before I drove I SAAB I had no passion for cars. Now I am a car freak.

Thanks SAAB! You mean so much to me!

I'm the one in the picture. Saab,it's not an automobile; he is my family already!!!

I am a proud Saab owner, my last car was also a Saab, I think that says a lot. I bought my current model 9-3 from my local dealership, Bay Horse Saab here in Blackburn, lancs England. Great service and also done with pride in what they do. I've owned my present Saab 6 years, we love our Saab affectionately known as Sabrina. I know it's time for a change but I'm afraid it's LOVE, she's truly remarkable, the thought of not being able to purchase another is very daunting. How can something with beauty and quality be treat in such a way, it doesn't need compassion but just plain common sense. Please do not let this icon become a thing of the past, from one very proud owner

I hope this nightmare ends soon and we have Saab back and fighting fit in the twenty first century and beyond

I'm hoping to drive my new 9-3 SportCombi (my second Saab) in this weekend's rally in DC. It's awesome to see so many come out in support of a car company, and I hope this means the best outcome for the folks in Trollhattan. Thank you all for a great car! I don't want to drive anything else...so Griffin UP!

Saab isn't common car, its something more. Hope it will be.

Saab Up! Griffin Up!!!!!!!!!!!

saab owners from Russia

Saab is essential, Saab is rational, Saab is tenacious, Saab is Saab!
Saab makes Sense!

It has been proven how big the saab community is and how enthiusastic we are.Saab is not a common car it is a way of seeing life, a way of living it and a way of enjoing it. Together we drive, together we dream SAAB forever.

I purchased my first SAAB (9 3) last spring shortly before GM formally announced plans to look for a buyer. I have another GM vehicle and have owned several in the past. There is no question that the SAAB is by far the best car that GM sold. If GM allows the SAAB brand to dissolve I like others will never buy GM again even though I still have over $3,500 in GM dollars

Hopeful messages from Stockholm!
We must hope and trust that common sense will guide the Swedish government. A guarantee for an EIB loan will not cost the Swedish taxpayer a krone when Saab can start making desired products. Redundancy for a large group of Saab employees would cost the State immediately a fortune...
And lets hope that the chairman of Spyker is willing to resign and focus on new and exciting projects....
Believe in the future and hope for the best! I'll start saving for my new 9-5...

Saab has to be sold, not only would it be devastating to lose such an iconic car company, it just does not make sense. At all. Why close down a viable car company whose prospects have not looked brighter in over a decade when there are buyers willing to keep it going.

Save Saab.

When and where will SAAB convoy be held this weekend in San Francisco bayarea??? If anyone knows, please post the info. Thanks!

I love my Saab. GM have a heart and save me from going over to Volvo.

When i drive saab just for 5 min, I find this is just what I want - like a old firend I ever have! I bought a 95 Aero sincel last April. I dirve with him to and fro Beijing - Shenzhen, about 5000 Km. Love saab to my end!!

we need you! saab!

Saab community is a reality, all over the world. Thanks a lot, all, and go ahead ! Today in Paris, an other Saabist convoy...

Jag anser som Kennet. Om GM dödar SAAB så ska jag aldrig mera köpa en
GM-produkt.
Alan

I am impressed to see all you guys here. I had a 93SS before and is very interested to get the new 93SS. I am now driving a Audi RS4, its fun and its a great car. However I still remember the 93SS is a very very best front drive car which I have even driven, I would rate the best among other germans in same level. When I saw the 900 convertible in mid 80s, I already fall in love with this brand.

In Hong Kong, its not easy to get Saab people but very easy to get those Audi / BMW / Mer fans. When I tell someone I want to buy a Saab again they will all think I am a freak coz they all think Saab is closing down and all the car will become priceless. I strongly believe with proper management SAAB can be as popular as other german brand.

I wish SAAB all the best, you've make a history of automobile.

Me satisface que los trabajadores de la fábrica SAAB esten mostrando su agradecimiento por el apoyo de nosotros, los amigos de SAAB. Es necesario que esta sensibilidad que demostramos por sus trabajadores y el orgullo de una marca europea, sueca, de gran renombre, sea capaz de enraizarse en los poderes fácticos de General Motors. Así lo esperamos. Gracias con otro apoyo más.

As a long time SAAB enthusiast, I felt compelled to do something in the face of GM's apathetic handling of one of the world's most beloved brands, and their subsequent arrogance in denying possible suitors for the company. So I've created a Facebook Group called "Why We Love SAAB".
Take a look and leave comments

SAAB is a way of life. You cannot explain it to anyone unless they have driven and owned one. Then they would know how unique this brand is. I worked for SAAB in 94/95 touring the US with the Auto Shows. There was no other car company that had as unique a product as SAAB. SAAB not only cared about the driver and their safety, but made the person one with the car.

I do not blame GM for wanting such an iconic brand, and believe they just couldn't understand what SAAB stood for. I also feel they thought they could transform SAAB into an everyman's OPEL or an American version cross between Pontiac/Buick or whatever they could come up with. Of course it didn't work! But I give them merit for trying.

But now it is time for them to realize their mistake, just as myself and the other millions of Americans who are paying for it with our tax money. Sell SAAB and let someone who TRULLY understands what SAAB once and will again stand for Individuality! GM you still can even make $$ in a new SAAB run by Spyker. Think of the new and exciting product that is about to hit showrooms. The great deal of money spent and more importantly the people who's lives depend on SAAB to feed their families.

Sounds like a good plan to me. Besides when else can you not only save a 60 year old iconic brand, but even better that you will be saving many 1000's of jobs!

I know GM will make the right decision.

LONG LIVE SAAB!

What did everyone expect when GM took over control,Saab were a niche market, you either loved them or hated then, GM made them run of the mill cars like everything else on the roads rep mobiles, Dont get me wrong, they made nice cars but not as SAAB did 20 - 30 years ago.Remember the SAAB 900 TURBO circa 1986, now that was a car a proper car.
Hope SAAB goes back to swedish control and go back to making cars for the enthusiast and not for the masses,after all it proves that the bigger and more cars you make does not make a secure company.
Whats next, CADBURY!! you should never sell out to the yanks they ruin everything.
SAAB owner for the past 20 years.
Simon

WE ALL MUST GO AND BUY A NEW SAAB WHEN SPYKER BUYS SAAB-OTHERWISE SAAB WILL DIE-GRIFFIN UP FOR NEW 9-5!!!!!

A bloody good car well worth savings. Hope the brand survives because its to good to go down.

I have driven Saab for 13 years now. At first a 2 ltr Saab 900 hatchback and since 6 years a 9.5 Estate 2.3 lt light pressure turbo. It would make me very happy if Saab would be saved. I also do hope that Saab will again be a brand with an own particular face. In my view GM made a mistake by introducing the latest model of the 9.3. it was too ordinary, too much GM or worse Opel. And it was also the first time Saab did not carry the hatchback. Hatchbacks have been typical for Saab throughout their history. They should be put back into life.

I keep my fingers crossed.

What a wonderful community of SAAB lovers, makes me feel at home :)
Hopefully GM will come to sences and sell SAAB, I cant believe I'll never get to try out the new 9-5..

Ttis is my second 95 and i cannot get a enough of them keep going please i want a third

My only chance to drive a plane is by driving a Saab. Hang in there you guys, we'll support with whatever it takes!

If GM will decide to end SAAB than we could compare it with the destruction of heritage like the Taliban did in Afghanistan in 2001 as they destroyed the Buddha Statues..................

SAVE SAAB! Griffin up!

Aero forever ¡

When I was very young person Saab was one of the cars I one day wished to own. I purchased my first Saab a 2008 9 3 November of 2008. I loved the car so much I purchased my second Saab this month. I always believed that Saab had a special place in the world of automobiles for speical drivers. Drivers that dared to be different and desired something special. Something different and special is what Saab gave us and to see the brand disappear is closing the door on future possibilties of success with the new 9 5 & future 9 3.

As a former member of the Saab USA team, it fills me with pride to see the response from Saab owners all over the world to the current terrible situation the brand finds itself in with GM. I had the pleasure to work closely with Saab owners for 10 years and I always knew you were truly a passionate group. These rallies just underscores that. Even though I now work for another automotive manufacturer, my heart still belongs to Saab.

i want to see the all new 9-5 in action in the highways around the world!. Save Saab! Griffin up!.

una pequeña marca, que ha sido capaz de conquistar muchos corazones,
espero que esto sea un sueño y que dentro de poco podamos ver una nueva saab con mucha mas fuerza.........

Report: GM has deal with Spyker for Saab
http://www.upi.com/Business_News/2010/01/24/Report-GM-has-deal-with-Spyker-for-Saab/UPI-64171264368766/
Sounds like good news!!

The modern car culture we live in. 2005 I purchased my new Saab 93 Areo in a global economy that was flourishing. Now in 2010 we are in a new era. Saab represents a different car company and an idea that his always been something that I have beat a drum to. Sure there is always hope that Saab could be bought from GM, y...et as it sits today, Saab will be facing a near death and the ideals this company has set out with will be lost. Its funny, it is almost as if a friend is dieing. This car saved my life when involved in a major car accident and yet I can not imagine why anyone would want such a safe car manufacturer to fail. Looking forward in good news from GM and a new potential owner of Saab. Till then, I found this great video on YouTube that you all could enjoy.

I bought my first Saab ia few years ago and I absolutely love it. It would be a shame to lose such a unique car. SAVE SAAB!

Saab's are so awesome my 9-5 saved my life as well as two of my friends' in a terrible accident and though it didn't make it through it served its purpose above and beyond the call. I am praying that Saab doesn't shut down because it would be a true loss. And also I have graduation present idea....
LONG LIVE SAAB!!!

I have bought GM most all my life. When I drove a SAAB I was impressed. When GM bought SAAB I was worried. Not I am justified in my concern. I am very displeased in GM. Why can't GM just let SAAB go like Mercedes did with Chrysler? Let SAAB decide what to do with it self. GM sounds greedy here. Must have money for SAAB if not we close it's doors. We cannot let a company with out technology become competition! So GM will Kill SAAB and therefor make allot of people dislike GM. Wow What an American Corporation standard. Take you for everything then ask the US Government to bail them out then shut down a part of their company because we cannot make money on it. What happened CEO and upper management cannot get enough bonus money? If you shut SAAB down I will never support you in what ever you do GM!!!!

Lots of posts about SAVE SAAB rallys

Miguel Delgado from Portugal

SAAB is more than a Car is Nature with 4 wheels, is the loyal mate in good and bad moments. I have born amoung many cars, many brands, but just one have conquer my heart. SAAB

MOVE YOUR MIND, KEEP ALIVE THE SPIRIT.

My warmest regards to all of you.

SAAB darf nicht ein Opfer von Managern werden - ich liebe diese Autos und deren Technik - für mich gibt es keine Alternative zu Saab.

SAAB may not become a victim of managers - I love these cars and their technology - for me they are no alternative to Saab.

Dirk, Bavaria, Germany, owner of 12 Saab 9000

i love saab and think they are a great company, i have lost so much respect for gm for failing to sell saab to Swedish super-car manufacturer koenigsegg, i thought selling to them would be good because saab would still be in swedish hands, however i can say that if gm does not sell to spyker, i will never buy a gm product again

On 31st of January a rally will be organized by the SAAB owners in Bucharest, Romania. Let's hope that by that date, we will just express our happiness for the sale of SAAB to Spyker or Genii. Griffin up !

I´ve just seen on the TV news that the Dutch sports car manufacturer Spyker has received a "Yes!" from the European Investment Bank to buy Saab. I hope that they manage to save your company.

stuff gm saab r better without them if they can b kept going

Go, SAAB, go!
Todo mi apoyo a la mejor marca de coches del mundo!
¿Hay previsto algún convoy o concentración de SAABistas en Sevilla, España?

Close the shit

This shows that GM should be allowed to acquire more brands. GM is ruining every brand he owned!!

I owe Saabs since 1993 and love everything about them...
hope they stay on for many more years to come!
Save Saab!!!
Shame on GM corporation!

SAAB will make it 2010-there is no better car than a 9-5 sport combi-good luck TROLLHÄTTAN!

We Love Victor Muller: Go Save SAAB! Don Quijote fighting some American Windmills

SAVE SAAB !!!

que a sido de esos anuncios move you mine? i esos cochazos que contemplamos ultimamente del 9-3 y 9-5 por no contar el sporthacth hojala no desaparezca esta marca un apoyo desde barcelona ( españa) y animos a todos espero ser saabista en un futuro i poder sendir en msi manos un 9-3 saludos i animo para todos esos trajadores que estan detras y no vemos...

GM buys Saab. GM takes Saab innoations to Opel. Gm launches ew" Opel Insignia. GM introduces the new Saab 95 - the Saab copy of Insignia... Just that the Insignia would have been just another tin can Kadett in XL size, without the Saab inventions.

Sad that GM did not see the potential in keeping one of the more innovative offices of the world... What will you do when the present technology gets old? Buy Saab again?

i don't drive. never did, in fact. but i do like some things about cars. in fact, i love cars. that might sound silly considering i don't drive nor plan to get a driver's license anytime in the future. but i consider cars do have the potential to be extremely beautiful objects. that statement became less and less of a fact in recent years, and most automakers have failed to reverse this tendency - making beautiful, boldly designed cars.

saab has been the good side of the force ever since project 92. maybe that's why i love saab, even if i never got to drive one (or any other car, for that matter). and today, i couldn't help but feel happy for saab.

thank you spyker. and thank you saab lovers throughout the world. you made the difference. and hey, maybe now i'll get my driver's license and get myself a nifty little 99.

Saab reigns!! got 3 now and never buy amother brand EVER... Great machine and love the engineering that went into these fine machines.

SAAB forever...

I am very glad to see all this support for Saab i have owned several 900 classics very reliable even when they are pushed to the limits of power. My family has owned Saab's for as long as i can remember and we now have 9 that we run around with
May Saab live forever.

Get on with it G.M. And do the right thing.

Dear All SAAb enthusiasts:
I hadn't driven a SAAB until April 2000, year in which I bought a 9-5 2.3t. Since then, and after having driven Volvo,Mercedes, BMW and Audi, I can say that the low pressure turbo that this amazing cars have, make them a world apart. A class of their own. They are simply different and outstanding.
I´m from Spain, and in my country, SAAB is not as a revered brand as in other latitudes. Nevertheless, apart from being blindly FOR SAAB's SURVIVAL, I'll keep telling anyone who may care to listen that SAAB is unique.

¡Long live SVENSKA AIRPLAN AKTIE BOLAGET! It's so, isn't it?

If GM doesn't sell SAAB, we will never buy another GM car again.

GM has been in finanical trouble for many years due to bad decisions on their part. Not selling SAAB will be another bad decision which will ultimately lead to their demise.

All the SAAB supporters won't buy GM cars in the future ...........Don't they get it!

I have owned 20 Saabs and now waiting for my 21:st to be delivered in end of februari 2010. Thank you for building great cars. Saab - there is no substitute!

I am so glad to be the first to report that SAAB is saved!!!
GM agreed to sell SAAB to Spyker. Here is the link: http://www.businessweek.com/news/2010-01-26/gm-agrees-to-sell-saab-brand-to-dutch-luxury-car-maker-spyker.html
Now my hopes for buying a small Saab (9-1) are high again. There is justice!
Griffin Up SAAB - you deserve to live and be free!

Spyker Cars buys Saab!

No more doom and gloom...SAAB HAS BEEN SAVED..SAAB LIVES!!!
What a great day it is for the Saabisti!!

Cheers to Victor Muller..Cheers to Spyker for caring soooo much for the brand!!

SO LONG G.M!! GRRRRIFFIN UP Y'all!!! Hee heeee!

I have my 5. SAAB, well , i also want a nr. 6

i bought my first saab this summer, it was used, but i wouldn;t trade for any thing it's a 99' 9-3 convertible i love it! long live saab!!!

Congratulations!!!!!

SAAB has been saved from GM!
Congratulations!
Looking forward to new Saabs!

BLESS VICTOR! BLESS SWADE! BLESS TROLLHATTAN!

Here's to a bright, POST GM, Saab future!!!

CONGRATS TO ALL!!!

SAAB reigns in quality, function and design worldwide in European cars.
Hoping for a nice future for Saab, I never let you down SAAB.
Let's forget all that Koenigsegg was evident on the wallpaper, I hope to Spyker Cars may Saab Automobile in feet in to a good future.

I've just heard the news about Spyker to buy Saab. I wish Saab and all employees all the best for the future. I didn't have a Saab, but maybe my next car will be one. Nice Regards from Germany!

I love SAAB forever!!

Congrats to Saab and to Spyker! I said my first words in a 1969 Saab Wagon and, between my wife and me, have owned eight Saabs. Currently driving a 2003 9-5 and wife is driving a 2005 9-7x. I have been just thrilled to see all of the support of the Saab faithful around the globe. Remember when Steve Jobs came back to Apple? Here's hoping that Spyker is our Steve Jobs and takes Saab to greater heights than ever.

Griffin up!!

I've just bought a 9-3 Turbo Edition 150ps manaul with TX upgrade in bright red in December 2009. At least three people already have walked passed my house and commented on what a great looking car. It drives like a dream and is just coming up for 1000 miles. All it needs is a heated front windscreen to clear the frost and snow. Why have all cars not got this feature (Fords idea). Anyway, great news about the sale, I wish you all the luck in the future for new innovative cars and great sales.

I think GM has done themselves a 'thick un'
The new 9-5 looks so good - and with the recent well deserved exposure due to the potential wind down of SAAB I think many current Audi and BMW might switch.
I personaly believe that the new 9-5 is absolutely stunning - please SAAB- SPYKER - keep quality , and the customer service paramount and you will be onto a sure winner.

Lovley! We love Saab in my family and will save up to bye a new one after this wonderful news! It was my first-900, second-9000, third-9000 and fourth-95.

Thank God GM has handed over SAAB to a company that will honour the SABB heritage. Than you Spyker !!!! GM had turned it into a dull
glorified Vectra. Bastards.
I will never buy anything but a SAAB ever again, from my teenage life I have always wanted a SABB.
11 years ago I made a decision that changed my lifestyle. Now after owning my 1999 SAAB Monte Carlo Coupe since 1999, it is an affair that is still on going, brings me delight in heads turning as I drive in traffic, and show the effortless power devolped when "moving".
I have just had my Monte Carlo 2 litre turbo engine rebuilt by a SAAB specialist here in Melbourne, yes it cost a lot of $$$ . . . .
I could have bought another car brand for the money I paid to have my engine rebuilt.
9 thousand dollars for a fully rebuilt and "beefed up" engine that performs much better than an Aero.
It was worth the wait, and I thank Swedish Prestige in Melbourne for bringing the spark back into my "baby". I will never part with this car, I want to be buried in it!
Long live SAAB and bring on the next revoloution, and hopefully a new outrageous design for SAAB.
"2 Litres turbo'd Monte Carlo 3dr Coupe owner !!!"
I love her to bits! There is no way I'd give her up.
Yes, we SAAB owners are an elitest group.
Cant wait for a new model to arrive, to park along side of the Monte.

An unforgetable day !! Forever in our minds !! Saab will never walk alone .

Congratulations. Saab_Spyker forever.

SAAB is a unique and caring car company..it really cares for the drivers, the occupants and also the environment. All the best to SAAB and Spyker! SAAB fan from MALAYSIA!

I'm soooooooooo elated and relieved! Finally, good news! You all spoke out of my heart about never ever buying a GM car or truck and that SAAB has to be saved.
My colleages at work bugged me because I'm a big fan of Saab and I always countered that it's an honor for me to drive a Saab. Now even more. I'm utterly glad that I won't have to buy a different car than a Saab in the years to come. I'm now driving my fourth Saab and I just love my car.

Griffin up or Saab guet!

Would any other car maker had been able to mobilise such an attention to its products!! Wonderful demonstrations of our love to what the skilled and commited people in Trollhättan do for us, and the cars we love to own, and drive! Now, I'm just waiting to be able to put an order on the ned 9-5 "combi". Cheers :D
