then they obviously have NO idea what they're talking about. The Saab 9000 is STATISTICALLY one of the safest cars ever made, and I'm talking about FACTUAL DEATHRATE statistics, not hypothetical crashtest "star ratings".
Just remember, however, that all this safety instantly goes down the f**king drain if you dont wear your seatbelt, and if you're driving your friends around, MAKE them wear their seatbelts too, even in the back seat. (sorry for that little rant)
Anyway...you made an intelligent, tasteful and sophisticated decision when you bought that car, which reflects a discerning character generally absent in most people your age (or most people in general, for that matter!!!).
The 2002 Aurora has a 4.0 liter V-8 that puts out 250hp and 260ft.-lbs of torque at 4400RPM.
The 2002 9-5 Aero has a 2.3liter in-line FOUR that puts out 250hp and 258ft.-lbs of torque at 1900rpm.
Where's the big displacement advantage?
Enjoy your wonderful car!
