Thanks all for the replies. The only reason I asked if there was a NG devoted to older SAABs, was that I don't see many postings here for the classic bunch. I own a 1975 99 that I love to death, and I don't see any postings about the ole 99......................... So from there I have a question! Does anyone have any info on the 99 turbo. 1978 to be specific. I've been lusting after one of these for awhile. Anything I should look out for? Any pros/cons? How does the early 900 turbos stack up against the 99? Thanks, and Happy Holidays!!!!!
