SU meetup – New York
April 17, 2011 @ 16:30 - 20:00
Hi all, Swade here.
I’m heading over to New York on the weekend to cover the NYIAS for Saab. We’ll be using the New York show to launch our all-new Saab website (more on that later).
If any of you can be in town on Sunday afternoon/evening then I’d love to catch up with you for a casual get together.
A clarifying note – the meetup is proposed for this Sunday, April 17th. It’s not for Easter Sunday.
I realise that Sunday will be a religious holiday for some (Passover), but unfortunately it’s the only time that I’ll have available. The rest of the week will be quite busy with Saaby activities.
The proposed meeting time is 4:30pm, which should hopefully give some people time to come in and then leave at a reasonable time if necessary. Those who’d like to linger longer would be most welcome to do so, of course.
A venue I’ve had suggested to me is Café Un Duex Trois at 123 West 44th. Good place, good food and a good size. They get busy from 6pm to 8pm so getting in early should assure us some space, too.
RSVP
It’ll be essential to let them know we’re coming, so please let me know asap via email (swade99-at-gmail.com) if you’ll be coming in, and how many people will be with you.
It’ll be great to meet some of you for the first time, as well as re-connecting with some old friends.
See you in New York!
Hi Swade
nice hearing from you. I am curious to see the new web site.
Have a good time in NYC.

I’ll be there !!!!…..in my dreams though but wished I could. Have fun and stop by at the BBC soon. All the best.
Hello Swade,
It’s great to hear from you, hopefully you will have some positive news for us on the Saab situation.

I read about a Swedish Gvt. Press Conference on SAAB at 13.00 CET…. can you confirm?
Swade, How long will you be in NY for?
I’ll be there until Friday – first public day of the show.
Like the rest of the company, I can’t comment on the ongoing procedures with the government.
OK I understand, thanks…
Ugh, I’ll miss you in NY by one week. I have an Aussie Rules game in NY the following Saturday (Boston v. NYC). Saw this post and was hoping to make it into the city for the meet up the night before, only to double check my schedule and see the mismatch. Oh the disappointment…
Hope everyone has a great time!
I will be there at the show during the last 2 days (sat and sun)
Have fun everyone.
What a shame, I left NYC yesterday!!! =( I’m sure they’ll be a next time. Thanks for checking in Swade, hope you’re enjoying your time at Saab thus far!
As turbulent as it may be, but Saab was an aircraft manufacturer after all… lol
That’s where my husband and I had our first date… Maybe you can design some new cars with crayons and paper table coverings.
Really wanted to join and tried, but unfortunately work takes me to Houston TX those days.
Have a lot of fun!
We’re going the following weekend due to the holiday. We’ll have our NYAS custom shop Saab shirts on!
wish I could be there – long long drive
so looking forward to the new web site
is SAAB going to have a feedback section

Hi Steven,
Looking forward to meeting you and seeing the SAAB PhoeniX concept car on Friday, April 22nd. Good luck on the launch of the new SAAB website. Hope you will have a little time to enjoy the “Big Apple” and do a little sightseeing while you’re there…….regards, Saxel
