General Motors acquired 51% of Saab in 1990. GM bought the rest of Saab in 2000. Under the direction of the Obama administration & the new CEO of GM that he appointed, GM closed down Pontiac, Saturn and Saab. It resulted in the loss of three excellent product lines, and many lost jobs. Saab was eventually sold to a small Dutch company: Spyker, in early 2010 for a reported 500 million dollars.
General Motors has since 2000. It is currently in the process of selling it. Now a company calls Saab Automobile AB exists and is a standalone company.
Saab needs capital investments by private investors or another auto manufacturer to help it rebuild itself. There always is the possibility of bankruptcy.
Saab is originally a Swedish car manufacturer and the vehicle is still produced in Sweden. Saab was recently bought by Spyker Cars N.V.
About 93,000 Saabs were sold globaly in 2008.

Carmax is a well-known online car retailer and they sell SAABs. You can either look on their website for SAABs or go to one of their stores and I'm sure someone would help you find exactly what you're looking for. SAABs can't be purchased new anymore as they're no longer made.
Saabs have always been made in Sweden.
people who know what they are doing. they are safe and reliable!
Saabs always rank among the safest cars in the IIHS Crash Test Results.http://www.iihs.org/ratings/Folksam insurance calls Saabs "The Safest Cars in Sweden."http://www.hemmings.com/hsx/stories/2006/03/01/hmn_feature24.html
Used Saabs can be found by searching online. Used car dealerships have them in stock at times. Always compare prices before shopping. A mechanic should inspect any vehicle before it is bought, especially if it is pre-owned.
Ummm well yes and no. It really depends which model and its age and mileage. SAABs are often noted for having a lot of electrical problems. Be warned if you do have problems parts are very expensive and many of the cars systems are very complex and unique to SAAB so you may need to take it to a specially trained mechanic.
Mondeo. Saabs are slow and are also very poorly made.
It shold show a diagram in the owners manual. (Our 9000 Saabs show the layout.) Don't have a manual? Get one!
