It seems that any car-loving person over the age of 35 has an opinion about Saab. You can find all sorts of discussion about whether Saab can make it without a large parent auto company (Saab is now owned by Spyker, the supercar maker, which is about as small—and committed—a parent as you can get). Like most business situations, the issues are complex, but certainly a recent cash infusion from Chinese auto assembler Hawtai along with additional funds from Russian investors, totaling over $300 million, will help Saab in the short term.
