Saab handles worse- the suspension is softer, and there's more toe in up front so you get more understeer.

NEVER buy a Saab if you intend on doing maintainance on it yourself, they are so over-engineered they could get the pope to swear.
I've heard similar things coming from die hard wood chucks about the mysterious evils of fuel injection. Go educate yourself, son, and Saabs won't be so overwhelming.
How many Saabs have you worked on there Loco?

Do you want the number of cars, or the number of months I worked at a Saab dealer?

w00t! Thanks for remembering. :lol:
Anyway, I've never liked how Saab's looked, so I'm biased. I'm also biased because I drive a Subie. But I think Saab ruined the looks, especially with that ugly-ass hood scoop.

I am with you there. The drive in the 9-2 was pretty dissapointing. Granite I was comparing it to driving Chris's WRX so the comparison was not exactly fair on the power side of things but the suspension on the Saab made it almost no fun at all. Now the Mini Cooper on the other hand...

Wow, that was dumb. Wish I knew what I was thinking there.
I need to find a place that will let me test drive the S.

Can anyone vouch for Loco? Call me skeptical but I think he spews bullshit all day long.

or discussing the merits of single- vs. double-knotting your shoelaces.

Each knot has their purpose- the single knot is for daily walking and occasional romps down a sidewalk. The double knot is for those of us who are serious about keeping our shit together as we blast up a mountain path.
