I owned a 96 Saab Turbo three door hatchback. Best car I ever owned, until I let my son drive it, total loss on the car, but not a scratch on him at over 70 mph impact with an immovable object. Turbos cost about $700.00, installed it myself so I don't know what the labor would have cost. Had 160,000 + and was still very strong and super dependable. Wish I still had it!In article <19990128164948.18021.00000629nopsam.aol.com>, jkwiprnopsamcom says... > >I'm in the market for a used Saab. I've looked a few 900's around the >100k-120k miles.
