SAAB's long battle to cling to life seems over; the bankruptcy filing to liquidate to pay creditors is underway. After the last bid by a Chinese company, GM gave it a thumbs down and SAAB Cars now ceases to exist.
GM didn't do good things with it, but I always like the quirky pre-General Motors 900 Turbos.

Avdian (Avy, Avi, Av, Eddie are some nicknames)
Tess - 97' 4Runner "Project Something Or Another" - No More
Annabelle - 00' 4Runner Limited "The Next Chapter"
Natascha - 99' GTI 2.0 N/A Auto - SOLD!!
Swordfish - 05' Camry 2.4 Auto

i side with ken on this, GM ruined that company, but the original saabs were AWESOME!
2005 Lexus LX470 - Stock for now...
1998 Toyota 4Runner SR5 V6 4x4 + a bunch of goodies. Lifted, Locked, Illuminated and Armored. Winner,"Best Offroad Truck" - 2010 Pismo Jamboree. It's been upside down and still drives me to work.
Lets be honest, they were ugly cars that no one wanted to buy...At least they aren't "too big to fail."
