Fritz Henderson – still rolling in a Saab (sometimes, or his wife is…)

by Swade on October 12, 2009

There was some scuttlebut a little while ago that maybe Fritz Henderson was reluctant to sell Saab because he knew how good the upcoming range of cars was going to be.
Whether true or not, Fritz is very familiar with Saab being an ex-GM Europe guy, and is reputed to have a soft sport for GM’s Swedish brand.
So when he was asked during a Fastlane chat what’s currently in his garage, it shouldn’t have been a big surprise to see one of Sweden’s finest….

Finally, when asked what cars are currently in Henderson’s garage, the General’s general said, “Camaro, 2005 Corvette, Saab 9-3 Aero Convertible.

I think it was Bob Lutz who said “We love Saab at GM. Our wives love driving them” so maybe Fritz isn’t driving the Saab himself.
But I’d like to think the other two cars are there because they’re expected to be there and that when no-one’s looking, Fritz heads for the ragtop.

You had to ruin this thread by mentioning that old fool’s name. “We love Saab at GM…” my ar$e. ;-)

Honestly they did love Saab IMHO. But GM was/is so screwed up that loving a brand did not translate into treating it well. See, e.g., Oldsmobile and Pontiac.

Its kinda funny…do you think the dbags at GMNA or fastlane give a shat what wifey thinks about cars? in front of their coworkers/buddies? And women perswade how many car purchases? Good riddance Lutz.
