1/ BMWs are as common as a Chevy Cavalier here in Vancouver Canada!
2/ The turbo engine! A total aphrodesiac!
3/ The drive!
Driving a Saab takes skill in that you can screw it up totally if you have the revs down too low and the gear to high - you may as well get out and push the damn thing if you are in second at 1500rpm. But get it right and it is like NOTHING I have ever driven.
My favorite place to drive a Saab is on winding mountain roads. You accelerate on the straights shift down for a tight hairpin corner, guide the car around the bend, shift to second and hit the gas and off you go to the next hairpin corner. Its a total blast and if anyone is interested, if you ever come to Vancouver take your Saab up to Cypress Bowl and you will know what I mean!
In summary I know BMW is "the Ultimate Driving Machine" but a Saab is the "Ultimate DRIVERS machine!
PS Does anyone else think the new BMW 7 is a pig of a car, it has to be the ugliest BMW ever?
