It's so distinctive you'll never lose it in a parking lot. For while Saabs have always been distinctive, they have rarely been flashy. They are tall, roomy, and known for safety features. Saab owners tend to favor paint schemes of gray, dark blue or black. That's a fantasy, of course.
Cops stop speeding ugly cars, too.
But it's a fantasy that helps sell a lot of Saabs. This is the second time Saab has offered this color, which is not a part of its normal palate. A limited run of yellow convertibles was offered in 1991 to celebrate the fifth anniversary of the first Saab convertible, which has the distinction of being the only ragtop built above the Arctic Circle. The color reappeared last spring on '97 models and is available only on the convertible. It's in combination with a black convertible top and charcoal-gray leather seats.
