I've owned and loved Saabs. The 900 was absolutely bulletproof. The 9-3 I owned less so. The innovative mechanism that also locked the gear stick when the ignition key was removed was genius!
Maybe it's just me, but this article seemed to end a bit abruptly. As a die-hard Saab fan, I was left wanting a bit more.
I remember that feature. My uncle owned a Saab and always parked the back of the car against a wall because the gear locked in reverse and only then the key could be removed.
I was 14 or so and he allowed me to park it. I was blown away by the idea of ensuring a safety feature against thieves that was so "easy".
