My dad test drove Volvo 240's, 760's and a 900 turbo in 1983.

The run up a curved highway entrance ramp and onto the interstate in the Saab turbo blew me and my friend who was along for the ride away.

Dad picked the Volvo 760 because it had a trunk for his business valuables and me and my friend could not understand that logic ;)

Wasn't until my third car after 2 Volvo 140's I found a 1978 99 EMS 3 door and dad loaned me some money towards it since my Volvo was then 15 years and needing a lot. That was 1986.

Lucky I found a Saab only mechanic who liked me or took pity on me and taught me how to do most of my own work, mechanical, body, interior so I was able to afford a lot of repairs and upgrades on that 1st 99.

Was back in American cars, trucks and another Volvo from '89 to '93, when we bought our 1993 900 Turbo 3 door.

Have been Saab only since 1994 when we added the GM 900 SE Turbo 3 door.

Thankful to have a wife who feels the same, and when we drive family MB's, Audi's, Lexus, etc. she feels the same. We simply prefer driving and riding in the Saabs over anything else for daily use.
