AND I LOVE IT!!!
This car is meant to be driven on windy twisty roads. I have pushed this car repeatedly through canyon roads, mountain passes...etc. The stock performance tires won't do a thing for you in the snow, but I got a set of 16" alloys with Nokian WR all season tires on it...there's no stopping it through the snow now.
I honestly was hung up between a Volvo S60, and the Aero. I believe 100% that I made the right choice. Plus, you by far get the most bang for your buck with the Saab.
As far as the 250hp being too much...no way...all I want now is more! This spring I'm going to bite the bullet and go for a Stage 3 upgrade through genuinesaab.com, I'm sure I'll still want more even after that.
Bottom line...this car handles and sticks to the road like velcro....I've never had this much confidence driving a vehicle in that class/price range.
