I LOOOOVE Saabs. I'm not sure what car to get after I graduate, IS 300, Saab 9-5 Aero, BMW 1-Series, or a newer Acura. Tough choice. That's a LONG ways off though...

I don't know why vBulletin keeps in enabled by default - I don't know many forums that utilize the thread rating system seriously anyway. All the forums I managed we disabled it.

Saabs are fucking ugly. well the new 9-3 is okay. every other one is hideous. Interior is tacky...i hate that fucking ignition near the seat and reverse lock. Clutch is too soft, shift throw too long. lol, i know im picky but hey....they're not cheap cars. The engines are magic though. I guess you dont care about everything else when the turbo begins to spool.

actually, saabs look pretty cool - I hear the mechanics are where the problem lies at. Lots of reliability problems?

well now that Saab is pretty much General Motors, yah...their reliability is shit. But the upside is they devalue like GM. Not too bad to fix either.

My friend got her Saab as her first car at 16 and she would probably smoke me with her 2.2 turbo. Saabs are cute IMO. Interior is pretty modern too.

lol.

I love the look of Saabs (not to drag this arguement back, but I was at work). I always have loved the look of them actually. I've never driven one though.

I would if all my power shit would stop going out on me! BTW, I have been working on my CL just haven't really talked about it. Finished blackhousing a while ago, did something to the grill, got a gps system, and my intake just came in. This summer I am going to get a spoiler, tint, hopefully break light tint, maybe a double din system, and possibly a slight drop with black 10-spoke wheels. Then I think I will be done with the CL as far as moding goes.
I'll post pics when I get my intake in.

isnt that new turbo 2.4/5 an eco-BOOST block? It's gonna be a pretty solid engine I hear (For the new SS Cobalt thats being released.)

and how about the solstice GXP and the Saturn Sky? Dont they both use it too?

i know theres a guy on honda tech that did some sorta frankenstein build where he put a dohc h23 head on a f22 block. then he turboed it if i recall.

still, those swaps are few and far in between.
