Saab: New buyers emerge after collapse

A spokeswoman for General Motors' Saab unit said several potential buyers have expressed interest in the Swedish brand after a specialty carmaker pulled out of a deal to acquire it.

On Tuesday, a group led by Sweden's Koenigsegg Automotive AB dropped out of a deal to buy Saab that had been in the works since June.

Saab spokeswoman Gunilla Gustavs says a few potential buyers have approached Saab after the deal fell through. She didn't identify the potential suitors Friday but said Saab was in close contact with more than one.

Saab has been in a court-protected restructuring since Feb. 20.
