Phatboy Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 http://www.theage.com.au/business/end-of-road-for-saab-after-rescue-talks-fail-20091219-l6l7.html Forgive me for my newbishness... not sure how to put a direct link in a post. Does it mean that as dealerships close they will sell off cars for a hugely discounted price?? But I guess it also means that they won't honour their car warranties.

W0rp3D Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 http://www.theage.com.au/business/end-of-r...91219-l6l7.html I would assume that since the company is owned by GM the warranty and parts supply would be done by GM dealers.

HuonS Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 I'm really not sure why Saabs were ever sold here in the first place. They sold a tiny number of cars each year - something like 200. Not really enough to support a whole brand. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/300836-saab-closes-down/#findComment-4996663 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birds Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 These cars weren't as bad as they looked. Nice interiors and they had a good build quality to them.

Spunky Munky Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 To be honest, when I was in high school...I wanted a SAAB as they're pretty uniquely designed and not many people drive them...but I guess their rarity made them go bust! Not a bad car brand to be fair...I quite liked some of their cars.

Birds Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 The latest 9-3 convertibles looked pretty decent. I once saw a parked SAAB that had been bodykitted with deep dish wheels and the thing looked incredibly mean; one of the best modified cars I've seen on the road.
