This is some weird weird stuff, I did not know this

[Mr. dB]

only one that surprised me was GM owning SAAB didn't know that

That's why Saabs are now built using shared GM platforms. Heck, Saab even sells a version of the Subaru Impreza WRX (Saab 9-2x) and the Chevy Trailblazer (Saab 9-7). The 9-3 and 9-5 use shared Opel/Vauxhall platforms.

GM also bought out Hughes Aircraft, which makes guidance systems for "smart bombs".
So now the company that brought you the Corvair ("Unsafe at any speed") is also building cruise missles.

Actually the Corvair was a quite decent car for its time.
