Thought those 3 mounted on the wall were lightsabers at first

Subaru also claims “Love” is what makes Subaru a Subaru. They also manufacture attack helicopters.

Saab the defense company and Saab the car company were two different companies.

They should have named their weapon division “SOB”

HobbitFoot ,

So what do we call mounting a SAAB on a SAAB?

Shitty cars??

mariusafa ,

Yeah this guy never drived a chad saab car

Chadus_Maximus ,

If they’re so good, how come there is no SAAB 2?

mariusafa ,

I really think the mad guys made cars because someone dare it to do it. Like they were doing crazy good jets when someone said: Okay this is a great plane but I bet if you do a car it would be awfull. They did it. After few years they realized it wasnt profitable so they ditched SAAB cars because it was a long running joke.

Why do you need a replacement if something is good?

ChicoSuave ,

They were so good there was a Saab 9000

Canards are God damn gorgeous 🤤

stoy ,

SAAB cars were great, they looked good, had good performance and was fantasticly safe in a crash

hydroptic ,

Yeah in what world are Saab cars shitty? They’re generally pretty good as far as I know (which, to be honest, isn’t all that far)

Vigge93 ,

Can confirm that SAAB cars are great! Mine is coming up on 19 years old, and apart from some superficial issues still works as well as when it rolled out of the shop. SAAB was also very innovative with their cars, taking a lot of inspiration from their jets, which is clearly seen in their design.

Ah, that explains why I saw a Saab launching Sidewinders on the highway

Natanael ,

The best car in Mario Kart

SpiderShoeCult ,

Didn’t they also over-engineer their cars, with things like putting limited-slip differentials on ‘normal’ cars? Thought that was one of the reasons they went under.

hydroptic ,

They didn’t go under, just stopped making cars for consumers.

TWeaK ,

Yeah the only real downside is finding parts for them, but they’re proper engineer’s cars.

It would’ve been funnier if the OP pointed out that Saabs are known for being a tank of a car…

Ilovethebomb ,

I was under the impression they were similar to Range Rovers, wonderful until they broke.

dependencyinjection ,

I thought that was BMW.

Fun fact on Range Rovers, at least in the Uk. They’re quite easy to steal, 90 were stolen in one night. As a result the insurance companies are charging crazy prices and thus many people can’t keep the car so the market is blooded and with used ones.

This is then devaluing the cars and so other people are having trouble selling them as they’ll still owe on the finance.

Ilovethebomb ,

That’s incredible, and they’re an expensive vehicle when new, so you’d expect them to have good security.

dependencyinjection ,

Yeah it’s wild. I wonder if they’ll get lawsuits for essentially selling a vehicle not fit for purpose, due to the insurance issues.

TWeaK ,

The only problem with them braking is trying to find parts, because they’ve stopped producing them. In terms of having to work on them they’re still generally well designed.

Voroxpete ,

Yeah, I drove a Saab for years, that thing was fantastic. Built like a tank and never had any mechanical issues (despite already being ten years old when we got it).

ramble81 ,

SAAB cars were good, if not a little quirky

SAAB/GM cars just sucked.

maybe we’ve been approaching this all wrong – are they really vehicles? or were they actually meant to be mobile anti-tank units?
