But seriously, it was because an ex-girlfriend had driven them since she started driving (96 & a 99).
Seeing how practical they were/are, how she enjoyed them and valued them (snows in IA), made an impression on me.
I've always liked the styling of them as well. Different enough that you knew it wasn't your father's Buick. That styling fits me well, form and function both!
Once I got to drive the 900T, the fun, the speed, the solid "connectivity" of it all convinced me. I was driving a Honda Accord & a TR6 at the time. Still have the Saab and the TR6.
That's how I was sucked in by the Swedish vixen that was Saab! That was the mid 80's for me.
Mark :-)
