I have a freind who’s brother seems to collect old Saabs.
Last time i was over there was about six of them sitting in his garage and driveway.

I must admit i heven’t been in one in years.
I’m sure the new ones must be nice ($$$) and feel like your driving in an actual car.
I just saw a brand new Maxima on the highway the other day.
Pretty sweet looking redesign from what i saw.
Currently i’m driving a Brand new looking 1993 Infiniti J30 with only 42,000 miles.
Should last me a while.
I hope nothing big breaks....

My Saab cost $30k or so when I got it, with 0.9% financing. It made it a very affordable car for me at the time.

For some reason, among people I know at least, it has a higher perceived value than $30k. People seem to think it’s a $40k car, not a $30k car.

At the time I was looking at Cars, I was building a Toyota online and as I added stuff I wanted, the price creeped up so that it was approaching the high 20s. I figured I’d just get the Saab for a few more bucks. I like the car - it serves me well.
