Hmmm, don't agree with that one. Alfa produced arguably the first sports sedan with the Giulietta in the late 50's, at a time when BMW was building large, frumpy saloons and the Italian designed Isetta bubble car under license from Iso. BMW became a competitor for Alfa in the late 60's with the 2002, and the two marques have sparred for Touring Car Championships for decades. Saab has never been a hard core competitor in motorsports, other than its successes in rallying in the 60's. You need only look at Alfa's rich motorsports history to see the difference between Alfa's and Saab's vastly different credos, with no disrespect to Saab.
