The dawn of an era for an iconic auto brand is good news for new car customers in the West Shore. General Motors and Spyker Cars NV announced last week that they have finalized the deal for Spyker to purchase Saab Automobile AB. Going forward, Saab and Spyker will operate under the Spyker (AMS:SPYKR) umbrella, and Spyker will assume re- sponsibility for Saab operations. The previously announced wind down of Saab operations has ended. “This is a great day for Saab employees, dealers and sup- pliers, and a great day for millions of Saab customers and fans worldwide,” said Jim Levine, General Sales Manager of Saab of North Olmsted.

With clean flanks, a distinctive, cantilevered roofline paired with wraparound-look glass and hand- some head- and tail lamp detailing, this is an attractive, cohesive design sans adornment – no gaping ducts, fender vents, or pro- truding aero addenda are in evi- dence anywhere. Very much in the Scandinavian mold, the 9-5 pulls design elements from the showstopping Saab Aero-X con- cept coupe and puts them in a real-world package,” writes Chris Paukert on AutoBlog. The all new Saab 9-5 sedan signals the start of a new era for the Defined and equipped by Saab as its top-of-the-line contender in the Saab brand.
