Today will take me to the  far corners for about 5 hours and I'll enjoy the drive . The 86 is special to me because it's one I connect with  , I'll not have the radio on , nor use the cruise just me , my lovely wife , and a quarter million miles of good memories .   Bob Sinclare was a wonderful man and I often was able to talk to him at various events , and I often wonder what  Uncle Bob whould be doing at this time of grey for SAAB  cars . I did find a great Vidio on youtube in dedication to him after his passing and after seeing the vidio , I can only belive that he and Ann whould be having fun ....... driving or riding somewhere but his love of SAAB whouldn't be far away mabey this will be a sunny day for that drive .    On days like this , to put some of the grey out of my mind I get out the 86 900 T 3 dr. and go for a drive .

A new small hatchback would be most welcome and give me incentive to trade. Plus maybe a new 96...thats "ninety six", not "nine-six"   :-) Been driving SAABs since 1970…currently a 2000 Viggen, 2002 9-3, 1967 96 V4…certainly hope Saab servives the current troubles.

Personally I doubt that the Chinese are willing to part with their monies right now. I'm worried by what appears to be a "as little as late as possible" strategy by Saab in regard to hard evidence for the court. Seven months of preparation for a deal which was in direct disagreement with GM's change of control -clause may come and bite Muller in the arse now. Court may be doubtful whether Saab actually know what they are doing, and without cash for proof, for court it can look like a case of "fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice..." All that said, I sincerely wish the survival of this brand. Had to bite the bullet and cancel my order earlier this year, and now I'm driving a big Opel. Kinda wish this was all a bad dream.

Both my 9-3s are running flawlessly. And, by the way there are still a lot of Pontiac, Saturn, and Oldsmobile cars on the road in Lubbock. The cars don't just disappear.

Looking forward to brighter days, 9-5 Combi stateside, and new hatchbacks!

Granted my little 9-3 has gone to the great parking lot in the sky... I really hope that Saab makes it. I have the most faith in the company. I really just hope i get the chance to get my hands on a new 9-5. To the underdogs! May we all achieve greatness!

Good luck, Saab.  Get well soon! Hmmm.  My morning started with a stop to admire a Saab 900 hatch in the hotel parking lot.  I could be per-SWADE’d to pass up 9-5 Combi dreams for a hatch.  BBTH!
