Many years ago you told me that Volvos are for the right lane, and Saabs are for the left. I figured the Swede should know!

I’ve owned a 900SE with the high output turbo and a 9000 Aero. Both awesome cars and I would happily have another. With just a manual boost controller they were rockets that still delivered over 30 MPG. Very practical and comfortable inside, well made and easy to work on. My 9000 had over 235k, the engine and transmission had never been opened and it still ran great.
