    Who's Interested In Saab?

    With Saab heading into bankruptcy, companies are coming in to snap up pieces of the brand.

    Hans Bergqvist, the administrator in charge of liquidating Saab told Swedish publication NyTeknik that many companies are interested in Saab's assets.

    Berggvist did confirmed that one of the companies interested is Youngman Automotive. This should come as no surprise as the company tried to save Saab until the last minute and has invested tens of millions of euros to help pay for wages and taxes. A spokesman for the company said that it was primarily interested in the Phoenix platform that would have underpinned the next-generation 9-3 and possibly other technologies that didn't involve GM.

    But there is another party that is also interested in Saab's assets, the Turkish government.

    Turkey has numerous auto factories on its territory; Fiat, Renault, Toyota, Ford, and Hyundai all build cars there. But Turkey doesn't have their own brand. Buying up some of Saab's assets could help the country begin building their own car.

    According to the report, the Turkish Embassy was in contact the ministry talking about Saab.

      The classic Sally Struthers commercial that was almost as well known as was her role in "All in the Family." Maybe it would have been easier to list what they DON'T teach.

      8Vehicles I saw in NY I saw this older T-bird in a driveway in a small town in Westchester County I saw this one in Times Square, but I don't know what it is.  Should I?  It was interesting to see this caravan just off of Times Square.  I don't know what the function was all about.

      She NAILS every point of why Red states have the lowest education, lowest quality of life, cast system of HELL. The U.S. Population needs to WAKE up to WE THE PEOPLE which means all and not giving in to the 1%. The U.S. is a 3rd world if not 4th world country for most states.
