Reports in Europe say that Saab will once again be seeking court-order protection from creditors, the European equivalent of bankruptcy.

But my thoughts were with a small group of car enthusiasts gathering in Parsippany, NJ.

Located just west of Newark, the smallish township is home to the U.S. headquarters of Swiss cough-drop maker Ricola AG and once was mentioned in an episode of Seinfeld. There, some 500 Saab owners congregated to commiserate as their world collapsed around them.

“Enjoyed the swap meet,” says Jeff Shore. “Got some good parts I needed for my ’86 9000!”

Adds Scott Hutchings: “Great event! … Iowa next year!!!”

Next year? Saab is headed for the history books and he’s talking about the future?

And then it hit me. These people know Saab’s secret. The brand is possessed of an unholy power.

The signs have always been there. Consider that Saab is based in Sweden, which is part of Scandinavia, which is home to fairies and trolls and changelings and all things supernatural.

What really inspired the brand’s original griffin logo?

And how else to explain the period spanning October 1981 and March 1985, when Saab recorded 42 consecutive monthly gains in year-over-year sales, according to Ward’s data.

Only Chrysler has duplicated this performance. Hyundai has actually exceeded it with 45 straight months of sales increases.

Come to think of it, how much do we really know about Chrysler and Hyundai?
