Can’t disagree with the list, but surely the 900 series Saabs should be on it....I had a 900 Turbo..best car I ever owned..

I would really like the Saab version of the hatchback Suby WRX. That would totally be my middle age crisis car.

I had a 900 turbo. Bulletproof engine, and you could get an amazing amount of stuff in it, but the rest of the car sucked. Had to totally rebuild the transmission, had lots of trouble with the cooling system, the hydraulics, and the terrible English-made front calipers. The dashboard was a disaster area and that damn transmission lock jammed up on me. It was about ready for a new steering rack when I got rid of it and the body was rotting out. It didn’t handle very well, and it was a chore to drive because of the turbo lag.

I’ll never buy another Saab.
