Have had many cars, no Saab's until my current 9-5 Aero '00, but...
In 1986, got a summer job in Quonset, RI driving saabs from the docks to various locations on the premises. First exposure to a higher-end euro cars (19ysr old at the time), but immediately appreciated them, and new I would one day own one. Got to drive the base model 900's, 900S, and 900T's, convertables, and the 9000 lines. Interesting notes: all turbo cars came off the boat with the turbo disconnected by way of some electrical wire, which we rather frequently reconnected to add some fun to our short (but often spirited drives from point A to B). Also, the high output 900 turbo (the one with no markings on the rear, is that what people refer to as the APG?) also came with blocks in the springs, so it really handled like a go-cart! Harsh ride, but fun! And lastly, when shifting into 3rd on the 9000's, my fist would often hit the clarion spectrum eq!
