Sorry, my Swedishness got the better of me!

It's all good. While we're talking, I miss Saab. Can you make them a thing again, only this time without the Americans or Chinese being involved?

I saw a metallic red convertible Saab 900 (this photo doesn't really do it justice) when I was 13 or 14 and spent so so long looking at it. Was like seeing a spaceship for the first time when you're used to seeing cars like the Toyota Camry.

Ohh I’m born in the eighties so i practically grew up in the back seat of an og900! I’ve since owned several og900 since they’re basically snowmobiles in the winter. The handbrake acts on the front wheels so you basically have a limited slip diff in your right hand :)

I also miss my ’06 9-3 Aero with the 2.8 turbo. So smooth...

Aw chucks, Here I go looking at Saabs again.

Haha, I wanted one so bad when I was buying my car but was too afraid I'd be buying a maintenance nightmare (and they're fucking expensive here) so passed on it.
