Yes, this may be a surprise to you but these cars are not geared for being fast off the line. Saabs are geared more for highway driving. In your car as well as mine, does not its full boost in the first two gears. This is why these cars are not fast off the line or should I say as fast as they could be. This does not mean that a 2liter turbo or any turbo for that matter can not beat a 160?hp honda but in a close race the your higher gears have more power and are geared for high speeds.
