I have a 1996 9000 Aero 5 speed, and its a pretty quick car. I am only 18, and its my first realy "sports car". I feel its not super quick, but i was just looking on the internet adn relised the Aero's would give the neew SL500 a good run for the money, well at what 1/8 to 1/9 the price that is. While the sl500 is making 302 hp @ 5600 rpm and 339 lbs./ft. @ 2700, it weighs 4045 lbs, thats stock. Now a 1996 Aero is making 225 hp @ 5500 rpm and 252 lbs./ft. @ 1800 rpm, and weighs 3240 lbs, thats also stock. Both cars run between 0-60 times from 6.2-6.6 seconds depending on where you look. The 1/4 mile time on the SL500 is 15.09, but i cant find the Aero's time, if anyone knows please let me know. My mom dosent believe me when i tell her my "OLD SAAB" could keep up with her "NEW HIGH PERFORMANCE CAR". We havent raced, adn i heavent even been in her car yet (Bad weather), but would she relistically kill me (engineers)? Thats another thing, her 2 seater is a couple, i can hold 5 peopel, i actuall drive a stick, mercedes dont make sticks for US cars, and i can hold her car practically in my trunk alone :) (well it seems that way sometimes). Just thought i would share, all opinions and comments are more then welcolm, and incuroged.
