A number of these are still operating, which seems more than can be said for the 340s (which I always liked to ride in, but seem to have become a maintenance liability after Saab pulled out of the market).

As I wrote about way back in this thread, one of these Cv580s went to Sierra Pacific, and I then rode it while it was also operating for American Eagle, in their livery, in 1988 from Burbank to San Jose.
