Hi gang,
The "Killer Bee" (as I affectionately call it) is about to receive new ball joints, CV boot and have a rear brake overhaul, and this is now my second time getting a close up on the new '04 9-3 convertible.
It's beautiful, and I really like it a lot (I'll finally drive it this weekend) except for two things...the PUNY back seat, and the price tag of $46K. I'd wait until at least April when the first run of cars is out, and most of the bugs have had their time to surface.
I've been pondering whether to sell the Killer Bee (which is absolutely immaculate) to a close friend who's been begging me to sell it to him, and buy the new one, but there is nothing like the sound and feel of the classic 900. PLUS, the '91 has a REAL back seat. I'm 6'1" and fit comfortably...the new car is a 2+2, regardless of how Saab advertises it. And the yellow makes the car a unique classic as well.
Apart from the fully automatic top, are there really any advantages??
I'm interested in thoughts from the group. I WILL say that owning a C900 has made me want to look for a mint SPG...that's how addictive these cars can be.
Cheers,
Paul H.
