Default Koenigsegg to buy SAAB

Some of you might have heard but the company who makes the fastest production car in the world(Koenigsegg) announced that they will buy SAAB from GM.

Could SAAB actually start looking decent now? they were taking a good turn in design within the last couple years but could things really take off for them now?

Hopefully they dont just make one new SAAB model that costs a million dollars.

Nope - GM is keeping Cadillac.

When I read that Koenigsegg offered to buy Saab, I yelled "SWEET!" really loudly, and everyone looked at me kinda funny.
