I had a black yellow striped VW bug then a Rabbit C with a GTI engine that overpowered the poor tranny. The bug was just fun transportation and the Rabbit was much more fun to drive. It felt like a natural transition to Saabs when it happened but I didn't think that much about it. I was looking for a Scirocco when I found a great low mileage 900 for the same price range. It was a no-brainer at the time, so to speak. I stuck with it because my Saabs have never left me stranded which my Rabbit did, in a tough situation, and I feel safer in the Saabs and they are bigger and fit my current needs more adequately. This is all my own perception however.
