SaabWorld - Forum - Inside Saab on waiting for The Deal and the future for Saab

They say "No news is good news" but "no news" often means speculation and rumors presented as facts. And "no news" from Saab is even more difficult to digest. I think we're all anxiously waiting for that news about The Deal.

I am sure many readers here at SaabWorld follow the Inside Saab blog as well. After the Bloomberg article posted here today, it is important to realize it is mostly a waiting game for Saab employees and enthusiasts. Steven Wade makes an inventory of the current situation and where the company is at right now.

We don't usually quote or link to other Saab enthusiast websites here on SaabWorld but this is important enough not to miss. It is very easy to get caught in that negative spiral of international news reports and many realize Saab is in a very difficult situation. But Saab is still alive and kicking.

I am sure 2011 is just going to be a memory of bad dream when Saab is a profitable and successful company again in a few years from now, churning out new Saabs at a steady rate from the factory in Trollhattan.

We remain in somewhat of a holding pattern at the moment. We’re waiting for The Deal. While we’re waiting for The Deal, employees are returning from their customary summer vacations, arriving at work and going about whatever business they can. The carpark here at Saab was more full this morning than at any time over the last five or so weeks, a sight that was a pleasure to see on this cool, rainy Monday.
