4. BMW's have equal or higher HP & Tqe and an extremely smooth inline 6 cyl with similar gas consumption as 4cyl or 6cyl turbo Saabs.
Higher HP & Tqe? Nope! How huge a bimmer engine do you have to get to surpass Saab's 350 Nm? And in the bimmer, you'll have to rev. it past 4000 rpm to get to the fun, whereas Saab has the Tqe from 1800 rpm and up....
This also means way more economical driving, when you drive decent!
10. You can't steer with the right pedal with a Saab.
Well, you'll have to get a course! I've driven turbo-Saabs with the right pedal - no probs!
11. BMW paint is regarded by most detailers as the best around.
Nonetheless has Saab the worlds most advanced paintshop!
18. Saab expects its customers will come back and buy again, BMW couldn't care less.
They're actually only surpassed by another German brand, when it comes to owners-loyalty!
19. Make an AWD viggen with 300+HP and you could eat M3s for lunch.
A Swedish guy has his 9000 measured by a Swedish carmagazine: 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in 5.75 sec!
Cheers!
