Saab never built a true successor to the original 92, but this fan-made 2008 Revival Concept imagines one with clean 9-3 inspired lines, turbo powertrains, and heritage cues that make it feel like a car Saab could actually have produced.
A rare gem from Saab's illustrious past has emerged, and it's poised to make automotive history. This meticulously restored 1966 Saab Sonett II prototype—one of just 28 pre-production models—has been listed for sale at over $90,000.

From its groundbreaking fiberglass design to its adventurous journey across the Atlantic and back, this Sonett II is more than a car; it's a piece of automotive art destined for the most discerning collectors.
