Last year, I just picked up a '91 900 convertible, modded with stage 2 APC and 3bar fpr. I paid a whole $2000 for the car. I was driving on I-675 on the left lane and saw this M3 (probably a 2003 model) encroaching fast on my rear. I moved to ther right lane and let her pass (blonde gal was driving). Instantly, off she went. So did I. I was pleasantly surprised that my $2000 Beryl Green '91 900 convertible kept up with her (I was on her blind spot), from about 60mph, all the way to 120mph. She didn't pull away. I didn't gain on her. As she neared the exit, she attempted move into my lane and then she was 'startled' that I was there and quickly pulled back. My $2k Saab versus her $40k BMW. hah. We both exited and she then dusted me from the stop light. I didn't even try, as I knew my Convertible wouldn't do very well off the line. Big smile on my face after that :) So I would think an Aero would'nt have too much problems, especially at highway speeds, where the turbo charged cars shine.
