My 2002tii made 200hp and was shockingly fast, I can't imagine 2x the power in a similar size/weight package.  I had a 510 with a high school bud that we modded and it maybe made 130hp and it was almost out of control all the time.  The rear suspension on those needs serious changes if you go big power, or well, any power.  The coilover set-up is the only way to go.

LOL...I showed my wife that minty green 510.  "It's...square." :P "Yuck".

 :o :o I know, right?  :bang:

My youngest sees it, "What's THAT!?"  :o :banana: "Is it old? Can you buy it for me!?"

Laughed...haha...no.  But we both thought it was awesome, and I must be raising him right, too.  ;D  Knows a great car when he sees it.

That Galaxie wagon and the International P/U are awesome.  As for old SAABs, I want these two.

99 Turbo is pure Swedish car porn. Especially in black.
If driving an Alfa does not restore vitality to your soul, then just pass the hospital and park at the morgue to save everyone time.

Now drives a Jaaaaaaag...and thus will not pay for anything during an outing...but it is OK, because....I drive a Jaaaaaag.

 :iagree:  I love the upright stance and huge greenhouse.  They just don't make cool designs like that anymore.

Nope.  ;D  You're right about that.  It might even be faster, but I can look at my car.  They're like Melissa McCarthy or Jenny McCarthy.  One's easier to look at, one will make you laugh...someone's going to like one more than the other.  ;D

Wasn't one of their tag lines, "SAAB, Born from Jets" - is that because it came with a barf bag?  :stick: :run:

shhhh troll, take your meds and go back to bed now

in other news, I badly want to bid on this with all my nonexistent money. These will be worth crazy money soon. If it goes for under $15k, somebody got a hell of a deal. Yes, it is hideous. I do not care, it is crazy obtuse and I like it. Plus, it sounds like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5iuDW9p5gU

Well that's just not nice.  If I hadn't taken my meds I would have a hurt feeling.  Are you implying you don't care about my feeling?  I'm offended.  It's my right...left...right wing...left wing...bawk bawk bawk!  I like chicken!!  What about all the other people taking their meds this morning?  How do you think they'd feel...being singled out like that.  Garsh...the Human Rights/Leftists groups will surely have to give you a call.  Stop making fun of pill poppers!  Trolls are magical...I'll have you know.  :P



I'd give all my pills and one testicle for my car to sound like that...drool worthy for sure.

Oh I'm good.  Also just busting your balls.  SAABs are def niche cars. 

As for the Alfa, it might not be a pretty car, but damn it sounds amazing.  I was wondering on my way home from work today (been wondering all day actually) about what it would take to get my car to sound like that.  Is it just Italian mufflers?  Firing order?  Or do I need to go to Comp Cams and have them grind me a whole new set?  Not sure what kind of HP that thing has, but even with a ton of power nowadays cars run so smooth it's hard to imagine any bark & crackling whatsoever.  Maybe I should get one of those ghost cam programmers.  ;D  And LOSER for a license plate.  :rofl:

It is a legendary 3.0L 12v Busso V6 with some hotter cams, intake work, and higher compression pistons. 210hp.

That engine is the reason I bought my 155 V6. Cant wait to get back home and drive her.
