Any info would be > appreciated! I recently sold my 87 SPG and bought a '96 900SE. W-O-W! I can not believe how great this car has been. It's responsive, comfortable, and a pleasure to drive (100+ miles) each day. The ONLY complaint is that the sun visors don't seem to be as long as the ones in my SPG. Maybe it's just the amount of the window that they cover. I guess that I'm a bit worse than most, considering I'm looking at the sun coming, and going 50 miles a day. I've been getting 25+mpg, and the fact that I still have 5,000 miles left on the warenty (11,000 when I bought it a month ago) makes me feel a bit better. (getting all the "kinks" out of the way before the warrenty goes has been fun) In short: I've had 4 1980's 900 Saabs, and have REALLY enjoyed this one. -Doug -- Doug Hardman - Silver Creek, Ltd. dougnopsamercreek.net - http://www.silvercreek.net (330) 929-1705 - Cuyahoga Falls, OH
