I'm a big fan of 70 - 120 acceleration - especially when I'm being followed by someone that likes to push - at 3000 rpm in 5th, you stand on it and man does it pull - thank God for turbo's... by the way, there is a reason why all the boy racers drive Honda CRX's - they can damn near outperform many cars on the road, not only in 0 - 60, but in slalom and handling - I know, I used to have one not a very long time ago - reliable, fun to drive and they look great - put some nice beefy rims and give it a polish and for the money, one of the best cars you can get.... But, now I drive an SPG - I think I'll stick with it... :) Michael http://webhome.idirect.com/~kerrhens njahnopsamejanews.com wrote: > In article <6u3sq9$2gjnopsamops.execpc.com>, > daveyboy <garotdjspamnopsampc.com> wrote: > > > > > > Biggy B wrote: > > > > > Can anyone tell me the 0-60 acceleration and top speed of my 88' Saab > > > 9000 turbo , it's mint.
