Thanks for the encouraging posts everyone.

Just a bit of a description of this car. Its a 93 9000 CSE with 5 speed. it appears to ahe every option other than factory fog lights. The power seats in this thing is woderful, and the memory position option is appreciated. Alsoa the climate conatrol system is quite enjoyable. As another note, the reverse lighting is a nice touch. And the leather interior is holding up quite well.

I have taken this car on a 150 mile drive to Lehman hotsprings in Oregon, and it behaved quite nicely. Last night was the first night I took it to work, and I drive a somewhat twisty 2 lane road. The combination of ride and cornering characteristics really stood out. I like the car quite a bit, lets just hope it stays reasonably reliable.

The aother cars I drive is a tired Ford F 150, which probably will be put out to pasture. And my car for fun is a 94 Mustang GT. While the GT easily outpowers and out corners the Saab, it is nowhere as civilized a ride. As they say, "Different horses for differnt courses". As a side note, driving a V8 with rear wheel drive and posi-traction is an exercise in pucker control.

So hopefully I can take care of the minor problems this car has, and make it an enjoyable daily driver. Like most people here I love to drive, and this car has some engaging characteristics.

Regards
Mister Pig
