It is with great regret that I announce I no longer own a Saab. I sold my '03 9-5 with 167K miles to Carmax tonight.
I bought my first Saab in Feb. '96 (a '96 900S in Scarab Green with tan cloth interior) and then my second in Oct. '02 ('03 9-5 Linear Sedan in Midnight Blue metallic with charcoal leather interior). I've been coming to the TSN since about 02/96.
I have always loved Saabs and loved my 9-5 but it was getting to where I felt I was at a point where I just didn't know what was going to happen next. I just replaced the coolant bypass hose and then the water pump started leaking. Since it's summer in Houston (with very little in the way of Saab mechanics), I felt it was time to move on.
I have learned SO much from TSN. Between both cars I'm sure I saved quite a bit of money by DIY'ing stuff and saving the real hard stuff for the pros. I also became a big fan of eEuroparts with my first purchase of a headlight lense for my 900 off ebay.
I may be down but I'm not out. One day, I'll get the OG900 I've always wanted. Thanks for the support all these years and (of course) the memories!
Best,
D/2
