I figure an exhaust system here lasts about 3 years. So much salt/slush crud on the car 6 months of the year (it seems anyway!)... Fasteners are always permanently rusted unless you use stainless. Sawzall is the only way to remove sections. I wish there were some better stainless exhaust options for Saabs. I've gone with a turbo cat back on my 1989 na c900 winter beater (with a 2.1L downpipe and cat) as a simpler solution. Those resonators on the stock na exhausts are the first part to go with the combination of road salt and more exhaust gas condensation... 9-5 oem exhausts seem to last better. We're on about year 4 now, though I am suspicious that a joint to the first muffler is near due! and the rear has molted...
Sunny California does not sound so bad!
