It's not the same without them.
My mom had a 900 turbo manual when I was in grade school. It wasn't that exciting to drive, less exciting than a base RSX. 3rd gear syncro was shot before 100k and it's expensive to maintain and really expensive to mod. Kinda cool though for a FWD.
>>28693557AGREE, GOAT DESIGN. I'VE HAULED FULL SIZE WASHER and DRYING IN SAME TRIP WITH HATCHED HOOKED OVER THE UNITS.BUT ITS ALSO A LEGIT EURO GRAND TOURING PRICKS CAR....BUT ALSO HAS FULL 6' LAY FLAT WITH SEATS ALL THE WAY FORWARD.FULL HEAVY STEEL GUTTERS FOR OVERLOAD ROOF RACKS.BIG ADULTS LIKE EVEN THE REAR SEAT ROOM.CHICK MAGNET.FLAWLESS EMERGENCY HIGH SPEED PANIC HANDLING.
>>28693557As my dad saidSaab is the only manufacturer he was sad to see gone
Should've made better cars that actually sell then.
>>28693557What was the appeal? I see a few of these around where I live and they just look like a poor man's Merc and they're not even rwd.
>>28694573Well depending on when theh were made they had their charmsReal saabs when they were independant were engineered weirdly.For example 900 in ops picture has longitudinal fwd system where the flywheel is pointing to the front of the car and it goes to the gearbox via chainsLater saabs like the 9000 and probably the new900/9-3 were safe cars.Only in last years under gm they were badgeengineered slop like the rest of gm
fully agree, op. i daily picrel and while it might not be the fastest, best handling, any other -est car on the road, the soul is off the charts. if not for the fact that there are zero mechanics in a 400-mile radius of me i'd drive an og 900 forever
>>28694689God speed you magnificent bastardI regret that i didint take an opportunity to take my gramps saab 9000 aero griffin as my first carYeah it was neglected to shit but it was still a rocketship
>>28694573They were cars for car nerds.
>>28693557My dad's carBottom is rusted and there's literally a few inch hole in the floor in the backseat so you can see the road go by
