Teknikens Vรคrld reports that Saab have started planning an amusement park to be completed some time in 2014. The main attraction is a big rollercoaster where the vehicle of choice is of course modelled after the PhoeniX.
Thanks Marcus for the heads-up!
On a more personal note, my wife commented ‘nice’ when I showed her the article (the one above, NTP!). The date however did not impress as much. ๐
Ha!
At least Teknikens Varld didn’t say Saab were building a Titanic ride.
You know the date today, right?
The last sentence of my posting was a clue, yes.
All in good fun. ๐
I like the bit about the “Horror house” the most: “showing moments from Saab’s time with GM”. Hehe ๐
Yeah, that was funny! ๐
April fools, anyone ? ๐
quite obvious… ๐
With all of the scary news stories about Saab’s finances, the brand already provides quite enough of a roller coaster ride. No need for more.
Then again, we could have had an April Fool’s announcement that Muammar Qaddafi was offering a $500 million (in gold) investment in Saab as part of an asylum deal with the Swedish government.
Nah, I like the roller coaster story better.
Saab will also be part of the Formula in 2012!
Forgot the “1”!
Saab will also be part of the Formula 1 in 2012!
“Saab announced today that brand new Saab 9-5 Aeros will be delivered free of charge to the homes of the first 20 people who post comments on SaabsUnited on April 1st.”
Is me me me!!!
haha very nice
Seriously? This was an April Fool?
I just booked tickets ๐
I booked tickets, too, Talladegan. Meanwhile, I’m awaiting delivery of my brand new 9-5 Aero. Any color will be okay with me. ๐
