The SAAB 9000 may be the most versatile vehicles ever made, but I don't think I could love and hate a car so much. I put a transmission in mine ever 20,000 miles and after 140,000 miles there wasn't a god-damned thing on the car that wasn't broke, except the engine. I beat the ever loving piss out of it though. It was my high-school car, and everything you could possibly imagine had been smoked, spilled or spooged in it. I even jumped the drat car a couple of times. The fact that the rear seats could fold down and have enough room for two horny teenagers to gently caress any which way they want was a big plus. Over the years I used that car to haul firewood, several couches, a shed (in pieces), a bed, misc other furniture and a fridge. It really could swallow anything and at the end of the day the back seats could come up, the parcel shelf re-installed and it was a fine luxury automobile that impressed more than one girlfriend. Mine was a 1988 9000S. Black hatchback with a spoiler, 2.0 liter and the dreadful ZF automatic.

His Divine Shadow posted:I'm personally conflicted. I really don't like the 4 door style or the interior. I realized after mulling it over for a few hours that I actually dislike most things on this car except it being a turbo. One thing about that two-door is that it's not just non-turbo engine, it's also got the older SOHC head. I've always understood the later DOHC engines were the ones to have. Personally I think the red interior of the four-door turbo car is kinda bitchin and belies the boring grey exterior.

Run from rust, of that I’m certain.

Been cleaning out the ancestral home, a respite to chilis since the early days of the Reagan administration. Good news, no-one's died. Gooder news, I found this cool SAAB book for the coffee table. Also, I'm the kinda person that now owns a coffee table.

I used gorilla glue on schwagon smoker vents after the 3m tape poo poo out on me. Doesn’t look bad at all, but I’ve also repainted parts of this car with fence paint and a roller.
