From the 1980s right through to the beginning of the 21st century, General Motors tried its best to simplify the art of badge engineering as a cheap and easy way to expand its offerings and increase its profits.
Apparently, some of GM’s enthusiasm for badge-trickery managed to rub off on certain consumers like the owner of this 1995 Saab who artfully transformed the open-top model into the Cadillac 900S Convertible in a way that a 1990s GM exec would say, “why didn’t I think of that?”
The complicated conversion included the replacement of all Saab logos with the more prestigious wreath and crest emblems, while the owner even went as far as to add a set of Cadillac wheels.
Mind you, the seller of the Cadillac 900s Convertible makes it pretty clear that the vehicle is for “SERIOUS car buyers ONLY” with the price set at “$3000.00 or best REASONABLE offer”.
