Matt Farah from thesmokingtire.com in new episode from /DRIVE network revisits cars from his youth – legendary Saab 900 SPG Turbo Aero (and Saab 9-3 Viggen ) – to see if they’re as good as he -and the Internet- think (look Matts instagram).
So, it is still very good!
For this episode Matt borrowed two great Saab car from a one dedicated Saab collector – from Khaled Mounir.
Just Enjoy:
What a shame, Saab 900 doesn’t need to be tuned, it’s already perfect.
In 1957, I was one of some 1100 buyers of the then new “Foreign Car” imported to the US.
1965 to 1972 I was the dealer for SAAB in State College PA and something that was said by the CEO of SAAB USA at the new car debut of the 1967 car with V4 motor has always been in the back of my mind. He said; “We will no longer be known as the Lunatic Fringe”! Since I taught my son his first word (SAAB) and he drives a Viggen now, makes me smile!
Oh yes – State College, PA – I spent 4 yrs there & grew up 1 hr east in Lewisburg & also am presently
driving 2000 9>5 2.3 engine — tentative plans to attend SOC in Lexington, KY – now reside in TN
