Leaving the Saab flock (for now)

I just wanted to thank everyone here at Saabnet for their help and insight over my last eight years of Saab ownership. My '99 9-5 served me well, due in no small part to the experiences and advice posted here. It still is in great running shape, and the new owner seems quite fond of the car already (he's a photographer and has sent some great 'glamour shots' of it to me). Glad it went to someone who will take good care of it.
We replaced it with a new 2011 Subaru Outback. I really like the Outback's space and AWD, but the seats are nowhere near as comfy as the Saab's... and the lack of turbo offerings in the new Outback is kinda sad.
Hoping to return to the Saab flock once I have a properly-equipped garage - I dream of weekends working on restoring a 96 or Sonett. Until then, cheers to you all and thanks again.
sonique.
