Anyway, though I was only 1/2 paying attention, I saw him and his
bride speed away several times in what looked to be a dark green Saab
9-3, 2 door hatchback.
I thought WOW! JRK, Jr. was in the club!!! Got me thinking, what
other high profile or celebrity drivers are in the Saab owners/lovers
club.
The only guy I could think of was Jerry Seinfeld, who drove a Saab on
his TV series and who I had read drives one in 'real life' also.
So any info on some high-profile Saab drivers?
I think Ulrika Jonsson drive Saabs, and you can't get much
more high profile than her at the moment :-)

That's OK, I still like my Saabs.

OK, you're forgiven because you're from Down Under ;-)
Ms. Jonsson is a high-profile figure in British media. Her
English accent is so good that she has to remind people
- and maybe herself - that she's Swedish, by driving a
Saab . . . she's figured in the news recently for, amongst
other things, having had an affair with
Sven-Göran Eriksson, a Swede who is the coach of the
English national football team (soccer for the
transatlanteans out there).
What _he_ drives, I don't know.
Others with Saabs?
Bill Gates?
Linus Torvalds?
Al Pacino in "Scent of a Woman"?

> Jack Nicholson, in "As Good As It Gets", drives a 9-3 convertible...
The Human League had a Saab 99 Turbo in the "Don't You Want Me Baby?" video
... but then we're getting into the 'Saabs on Film' thread, rather than Saab
driving celebs.
Yes, Ulrika has two Saabs - a 9-3 and a 9-5 estate.
Jack Straw (yes, that's his real name ... the UK Minister for ?whatever?) is
chauffeured in a 9-5 saloon. When he was the Minister for Transport, his car
was pulled over by the Police for speeding because he was late for a
meeting. Only in a Saab, eh?
On that note, sometime last year, a poll was cast by one of the so-called
"Fast Car" magazines in the UK about people's speeding habits. It was found
that the top car for speeding was a Saab 9-3 ... or rather, people who admit
to speeding more readily drive the Saab 9-3.
Keep on speeding, erm ... Saabing ...

I am pretty sure it is a 900 SE c (different wheels on a 9-3) and in some shots where the boot cover was visible I thought I saw 900...

Bill Gates DRIVES???? I doubt THAT one. :^) Unless of course, the car is
protected by special Pie-proof glass... :)

Seemingly he does, or used to. I read that, in his younger days,
he was something of a reckless driver -- which fits with how he
conducts his corporate life, come to think about it.

So did the buck they were avoiding.
In one D&G episode (the chicken contest) they mention the last Seinfeld show.
That closes the Saab circle.
