200K up for Danni

There’s been a lot of new visitors here since we last covered any news from Danni, so it’s worth a little recap.
I know there’s some hard core Saab owners out there with multiple Saabs and two-strokers and all that stuff, but Danni’s dedication to Saab is pretty remarkable.
Danni lives in Namibia. That means it’s [...]

That Viggen Feeling!

What a great photo!
This is my partner in T-Shirt activities and VERY happy Viggen owner, Ivan, taking some friends for a test drive. Ivan’s only recently acquired the Viggen and obviously, the thrill hasn’t worn off just yet. I’ve had mine for around 20 months and it hasn’t worn off

More 9-3 mumblings

On top of the far and wide [possible] sightings of the 9-3 reported earlier, we’ve now also received two separate notifications of some info that I’d guess has been released to delaers today - one via email and the other in comments.
For those of you who don’t read through all the comments (why not?) I’ve [...]

More 9-3 sightings

Sorry.
More intriguing was this, just in my inbox right now:

Saab Singapore crank it up

They engaged the Grey Group to design the ads. I like their attitude:

“Great facts make great ads,” says Subba [...]

Car Design Terminology

Via Autoblog comes this interesting article on car design from the New York Times.
I’m going to brush up on my car design terminology prior to the Saab Festival. Hopefully Alex Daniel or Anthony Lo will be there and we can chew the fat about the Aero-X’s Six Line, it’s DLO and of course, it’s [...]

More Convertible Butts!

This has got to be one of those dream scenarios for a car-watcher, hasn’t it?
Peter S lives in Austria and just happened to be going for a nice drive through the twisties when THREE new 9-3 Convertibles came towards him!

…..I saw the front and suddenly I was so excited. I turned the car and [...]

TTAC’s GM Brand Bash hits Caddy

The Truth About Cars is doing a series on GM’s various brands. Given that Robert Farago, the site’s Swami, has penned over 130 editions of a series called GM Deathwatch, you can probably guess that this one’s not being written from a complimentary perspective.
Today they’ve written up Cadillac and amongst the backhanders present in [...]
