[Shotimes] OT Saab 93

[Kerby Haltom]

Only if leaving them alone means "use the Epsilon chassis and Ecotech 
engine in your next car, or we'll fire all off you!"  About the only thing 
SAAB left is the ignition in the console.  Otherwise, its an Opel with a 
different body.  Shame too, I always liked SAABs.
