Hi guys/gals,


I just moved to Fullerton from up north. Is there a Saab club around here? There's a Bay Area Saab Club and they get together a few times a year for various stuff. Just wondering...

I haven't heard of one - ask Bugzy- he'd likely know about this. :-)

I just looked on Saabnet and they show one in SD and one for Socal. But their website hasn't been updated in two years....

hahah .. thats the same thing ive gathered

what can i say .. i love all euros ;) well all the nice euros ;)

they got a site, but it seems pretty unactive

i think your best bet is just to find other euros to hang out with ... saab community is very small ... same goes with volvos

im sure that will change as people start seeing more fixed up saab/volvos

There are no SAAB clubs in Orange county as of yet. I have been trying to get interest together to see about starting one. I also belong to http://www.SAABCentral.com and have been trying to round up members on there also. If you are interested let me know and maybe we can hook up somewhere with a few others and try and work it out!

saabCentral.com is the only active site ive seen for Saab's.

But you guys are always welcome at the SCE events ....

SAABCentral, The SAAB NETWORK and a few UK sites are all pretty active. THe only problem I find is that all the members are East Coasters or European (and live in europe) so it makes it pretty hard to get together with them. There are more saab owners than people think out here but they just don't seem to want to get involved in anything. I think that most people but them for status over anything else but hopefully people will realize the potential of them soon enough!

I will try to make it some of the local OC meets. I work in Costa Mesa and live towards the Los Al racetrack but Orange isnt too far out of the way! :D If I get there I will def give you a ride in the saab!

I'd love to join you guys. But, right now, my car's sitting in a shop. Was in an accident last month and they're still working on it.... long story... hope to get it back before thanksgiving.
