Well, I'm averaging about $250/month over the past 12 months. That's $$ I should have been putting into my daughters 529 Plan for college. Then again, with the way the market has been going over the past 12-18 months, I don't know how much I'd have to show for that.
It seems shameful that a car manufacturer like Saab can't put together a rock solid transmission. Especially on a model (98 900set) that's had a number of model years prior to 98 to address "problems." I mean, did they just throw up their hands, and scrap the 900 series after 1998 in favor of the 9-3?
When I was looking at this car, my wife said, "...but didn't you have problems with the 89 900 you used to own?" Well, of course I did, but I also got married again after the first go-around went so horribly wrong.
BOTTOM LINE:
I've never hated and loved a car/car manufacturer more than Saab.
I think I'll try and trade this one in on a '99 9-3.
