Sometimes, school projects can be a lot of fun, like when you're assigned to decorate a poster or blow up a car using high explosives.

Even though we keep hearing of rumors you'll be able to buy a new Saab 9-3 sometime next year in some part of the world, and an EV coming after that, there's still the matter of closing out the Spyker Era of the old Trollhattan firm.

The guys over at Found Our Own Road went looking for the hundreds of new Saabs held in limbo at the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey's vehicle shipping and processing center due to Saab's forced bankruptcy.

With news that Saab has finally declared bankruptcy and is now as close to being officially börked as it's ever been, many might question whether they should buy one of the more than 1,600 new Saabs for sale at dealerships across the United States. Should you? No. At least not yet. Here's why.

Curious why the new Saab 9-5 facing the wrong way in the family tree? Rather than waste time pondering the vagaries of the Swedish automaker's former ownership by a slowly-bankrupting American automaker, try and name all ten Saabs here. [GoodOldValves]

Trollhättan has one foot in the grave, and it's not clear if she's coming back. Saab History wants to organize a caravan to Detroit to coincide with next week's moment of truth. Think cars should have soul? Listen up.

This morning, a day after we reported GM's keeping options open on Saab beyond December 31st, Automotive News reports GM will restart some production lines in January including the 2010 Saab 9-5. So Saab's alive. For the moment anyway.

Saab's death-rattle continues, so this print advert for the 2010 Saab 9-5 was probably the creation of a Swedish agency, that'll now never be seen in print. Well, until the 9-5 gets rebadged as an Opel Senator of course. [SaabsUnited]
