Trans has Better ratios for real life uses... better acceleration, later cars wre changed as Saab was embarrased by the Gas Guzzler label and set the Boxes up so they would get better mileages onna Highway.
Lighter weight and the better acceleration ratios means you don't have to stomp the poor motor as hard for decent performance. Remember Heavier Hiigher geared cars Need substantially higher Horsepower to to the same thing.
My old Lotus Super 7 with it's 125 HP can easily outperform virtually any Saab on the road Regardlerss of ridiculous HP claims.. up to 100 mph at least:-) cuz it weighs 1200 lbs.
Weight and Gear ratio is EVERYTHING.
