Most of them are still made in Sweden, but from 2010 the production will
be moved to Germany. GM bought 50% of Saab 1990 and completed the entire
deal in 1998.

Well, yes. But it'll be a US-market only car - like the 9-2x, which was
built in Japan, and the 9-7x, which is built in the US.

My c900 was built, as were many others, in Finland.

They'll be shipping it all the way from Mexico for European markets?

The Saab's are still being made in Sweden.

The next 9-5 and 9-3 are to be made in Germany. The upcoming Saab 9-4X is to
be made in Mexico. While the upcoming Saab 9-1 is to be made in Sweden.

No, the 9-4X is also planned to be sold in Europe - according to Saab.

Yes, and the current 9-3 Cabriolet/Convertible is build in Belgium.
