Ugly as. Is it real? Remember that Saab are compelled to ditch the Griffin soon anyway.
Plus is that it has a propeller for that aero link.Current Holdens.

Re: new Saab logo found on ebay?
Anybody with the right equipment... Look, SAAB made an entire emblem industry by putting "instant peel paint" on the factory ones. It's the first part many SAAB owners will replace!

Re: new Saab logo found on ebay?
I seriously doubt that's a new, real Saab emblem. I googled and that's Spyker's logo. Someone just got creative
Man this reminds me of good ol GM...you can use "same ol GM" as you use "same ol Lions"

Re: new Saab logo found on ebay?
alittle off topic but there was one experimental jet plane that had a jet engine and a prop motor the republic XF-84H "thunderstreak". However it did not sit well with pilots and it was called the "thunderscreech" by ground crews because of the planes tendency to cause nausea and headaches) anyway assuming this is a real logo I kinda like it but I'd like to see some cnfirmation from corporate that it is a real log before making any final judgements Originally Posted by jzchev28

Re: new Saab logo found on ebay?
I think it looks a bit silly... I'd say that it is just somebody with the ability to produce their own badges getting a little artsy.

Re: new Saab logo found on ebay?
This is obviously somebody's "creativity". There is some demand for replacement round griffin badges on Saabs, as they quite easily peel off under pressure wash or simply due to age. This is "enhusiast" stuff. Case closed.

Re: new Saab logo found on ebay?
Quickening touched on this, 'Born from Jets' was GM 's tag-line for Saab, as we all know this is no longer GM's Saab. Originally Posted by jzchev28

Re: new Saab logo found on ebay?
Definitely just someones idea of a combo logo. Wouldn't surprise me if the Spyker logo doesn't appear on it at all.
