Quote from nutty boy :

Newer ones were OK and brand new ones are crap again.

The 9-5 and 9-3 are based on the Vectra, and the planned 9-1 will be Astra based.

That's why the new saabs are good ... they're Vauxhaulls in disguise!!!!

Nice. It's an inline-3 turbo?

thanks guys.yep,its an inline 3 DOHC turbo.sooo much fun to drive.like a go kart

Funny thing, although I love cars (except the bottom range stuff... yea that's right, I'm looking at you Pug 206...) I wouldn't consider buying one. Ok maybe living with under 500 euros monthly income has something to do with that, but I somewhat feel that cars are just a big waste of money unless you can afford 1) a fast one and 2) lots of track time.

3) You live middle of nowhere

Especially that!

Somehow it amuses me when I spot a nice sports car on my city's streets and in the back of my head I have a feeling it's quite certain that car will probably never be driven to its limits.

That's how things go these days. Rich people drive expensive cars just for the image and status, not to use the cars actual capabilities. Driving anything else than a front wheel drive automatic 4 door sedan daily in the streets is propably dumb, but if you DO want to have occasional fun on a car (not meaning doing irresponsible driving in the traffic) a sports car is your only way to achieve it. It's fun to be able to feel the cars power when you accelerate on to a motorway and there's a 1.3 Civic behind you that gets left far behind. Or drive in the limits of grip on empty winding roads at night. Things that a sports car can offer make your adrenaline rush like you could never imagine until you buy or drive one.

There are people out there who do use the potential of their cars, and not just use them as an status-booster.

Nice dialog going on hehe.

If I somehow, somewhere, in a different reality, end up with a bucketload of money (sankollinen massia), I'd buy a nice Bimmer M3 and completely remove all useless stuff like interior, panels, soundproofing, etc. Then I'd slam bucket seats and a rollcage in there and hit the track, in hopes I won't kill myself in first bend.

:woohoo:

:auto:

:bigeyes2:

:hbomb:

:ambulance:

:tombstone:

Well, I think it's great fun to accelerate away from a 1.6 VTEC Civic... 1.3's gets sucked in through my intake

Oh, who am I kidding.. This is only when I take my mate's BMW 323i E30 for a ride Fun anyways..

Ahct, german engineering in its glory! I actually laughed out loud for that one

Achtung! Panz---NEIN! It'z a VTEK! :eek:

I want a LanEvo, any LanEvo :P

Oh well, Uni first and I'll just go from there
