@MarkS: ditto.
Swedish national pride vs. GM = autonomous Saab, with that 3-door hatchback. Like your wife, I have only had 3-door hatchbacks and cannot imagine any other Saab.

@RMinNJ: dealers like you keep Saab alive in the US in spite of the Lutz mindset. We need you!

After reading about the foolish Bob Lutz here I got to hear him on NPR (national public radio) from the detroit auto show. What a foolish and embarassing man:

NPR: How is it running on goverment money?
Lutz: Well I can’t stay in fancy hotels and fly on a corporate jet….

NPR had many comments/letters this week on how mad his comments made people…Ranging from “no wonder they are in trouble” to “I’ll never buy a car from him”.

GM should be ashamed for using him for any public relations task. If he represents GM management than its a wonder Saab survived this long. God help them.
