What are some colors that make you think of saab? there are the obvious choices like Edwardian Grey, or viggen blue, but dig deeper.

I always think of black. My aunt had a black 900 S, one of my co-workers has a black 9-5, and our boss had a black 99 turbo once upon a time.

X2 on the cosmic blue, it hurt it to find a 9-5 in the junk yard that was cosmic blue. I was upset :(

My moms 9-5 wagon is Graphite Green Metallic, I swear when I first saw it, it looked black, got closer saw it was green metallic, in the sun its pretty.

Saab really had some cool colors over the years, I honestly like just about every color people have listed so far. anyone else like the non clearcoat colors? the black SPG's, and the cherry red cars. even the NG-900's in cherry red were non clearcoat as you can see by how most of them are all chalky cause they are never washed or waxed :lol:

Neither my vert or 99 are clear coat. it really upsets me, because I wax enough of my bosses cars so I probably won't be waxing mine much. :lol:

I actually saw a glacier blue saab on the road today. Some nice looking young lady was driving it. Too bad I was in my friends 4-runner loaner vehicle because my 99 blew the head gasket going over the pass. :)

Lets not forget that for the first few years all saab's were swedish military green! I don't have a picture ready for that one though.
