I love:
1. The sporty drive -- the handling! Even my '89 900S is great fun to drive.
2. The safety -- knowing that in my '89 900S, I'm about as safe as can be. From familial experience (although I was not in the car), I know that a 1989 C900 can go rearward into a stone wall at ~55 or 60mph and still have both riders walk away unharmed (and the only reason they couldn't drive away was that the rear fender was bent into one of the rear wheels).
3. The look, feel, and design. Distinctive, stylish, comfortable, and generally well-thought out, in my opinion.
I would like to drive any of the current model Saabs, but I most wish to drive a C900 SPG. After driving N/A 900's for so long, I want to see what it's like to have that kick in the pants from SPG turbo power!
