35. I had a friend buy an '84T hatch at auction

in 1991. I learned to drive stick in that car and loved it. A few months later another friend bought an '86 16v 900T and I got hooked on 16v turbos and the C900's handling characteristics. Bought my first ('81 S 4dr) at NYC impound auction for $325! Ten years later, I'm on my 6th ('87 SPG) and 8th ('93 Tcvt) C900s - sold the 7th ('85 SPG). I was blessed to have had a Saab master tech in the neighborhood to learn from and now do the bulk of necessary maint./repairs myself. It's the only make I've ever worked on; I won't touch the wife's Toyota! The question is, "What's next?" I can't stand the looks of the NG900/9-3 and a new Vector just can't be worked into the budget. Maybe a '96/96 9000 Aero? Hmmm.

Blk. on Black 1985 900 SPG ...... Sold
Dk. Green 1993 900T Cvt. ........ sweet car
Next Saab - 1996-97 9000 Aero?
Desired Saab - 2004 9-3SS Vector I can dream, can't I?
