SCNA (Saab Club of North America)  every year traditionally held the largest gathering of Saab fans in North America. This year’s SAAB Owners Convention, held at the Griffin Gate Marriott Resort in Lexington, Kentucky. In attempt to most effectively cover all geographic bases, the SAAB Club of North America moves the show to a different city every year.  Last year, we were reporting from Bend, Oregon, and the year before that the convention was held outside of Albany, NY.  This is to make sure all SAAB owners get a convention from time to time.

For over 15 years, Goran Aničić has been passionately focused on Saab automobiles and everything related to them. His initial encounter with Saab cars took place back in 2003 when the first Saab 9-3 and sedan version were introduced. At that moment, he was captivated by the car's Scandinavian design logic and top-notch engineering, and everything that followed stemmed from that first encounter. Later on, through his work at the editorial team of the Serbian automotive magazines "Autostart" and later "AutoBild," he had the opportunity to engage more closely with Saab vehicles. In 2008, he tested the latest Saab cars of that time, such as the Saab 9-3 TTiD Aero and Saab 9-3 Turbo X. In 2010, as the sole blogger from the region, he participated in the Saab 9-5ng presentation in Trollhättan, Sweden. Alongside journalists from around the world, he got a firsthand experience of the pinnacle of technological offerings from Saab at that time. Currently, Goran owns two Saabs: a 2008 Saab 9-3 Vector Sportcombi with a manual transmission, and a Saab 9-3 Aero Griffin Sport Sedan from the last generation, which rolled off the production line in Trollhättan in December 2011.
