the main reason the 2.5 v6 in the 900 was discontinued was due to the lack of sales not problems with the engine......the 2.5 is a very good engine but given a choice thr typical saab owner would choose the 2.o 4cyl turbo............as far as the 3.0 liter 9.5 asymetrical turbo ..i think the 9.5 is the only vehicle using this patented engine design...no opel has this engine..thanks kwbrewer ROGER BEAR wrote in message <79qqm0$25pk$1nopsamsvr03-int.news.prodigy.com>... >I think you/ or the original poster got miked up.
