On the same day that a Chinese firm announced that it would restart production of the 9-3, I happened to bump into the poster child for Saab's decline and fall.
This Saab 9-7x can't be any more than seven years old, but the badge on its nose has already faded away to nothing. The faded cloisonne is almost as much a part of Saab lore as the centrally-located ignition key, and it's something that should have been fixed long ago. General Motors's stewardship of Saab was supposed to result in an improved customer experience. That was the promise, but the reality was a few riffs on a European Cavalier and an Oldsmobile Bravada with a nosejob. A bad nosejob, as you can see.
