Did 1990 SPG's come in red? I thought that was a later option, with the "Talledega Red" color. The cruise control is probably just a problem with a leaky dry rotted vacuum line under the dash, above the pedals somewhere. Sounds like a nice deal to me! Likewise, my 85 900T has it's original turbo at 216k, but I have a feeling the car was babied for the majority of it's life. It's pretty weak now, but all there. The turbo isn't anything to worry about anyway, it's a self explaitory fix once you find out what it looks like and where it is. Also, it doesn't require any special tools that I know of, although I've never changed a liquid cooled turbo. I'd imagine that there are probably just a couple more hoses going to it than my older saabs. Sounds like a nice car, let's see some pics! Don't worry about it oo much, if it breaks, fix it. There's few things you can't do with the help of the people on this board.
