Heya folks
Finally got me a sweet 78 Turbo today, long time a looking. Coming back to a 99 Turbo after driving every other Saab model out there - my current "nice car" is a '04 95 Aero, and I've had '83 and '86 900 T's, 9000 CSE's and my revered first car, a 1978 monkeyshit brown 99L - I gotta say WOW is this thing FUN TO DRIVE! I get rubber in second gear fer chrissake! My Aero is nowhere near this much fun even though it's the best car I've had so far, the 99 T with armstrong steering and glass ketchup bottle power delivery has it beat in grin factor.
There's a lot to be said for thinking ahead in traffic because of spool up times, torque steer and steering that beats a bowflex in calories expended. SAAB should definately try to bottle this fun factor and put it into a future small car.
