red ones nice.
wouldn't bother with a gtt, much better cars out there.
Get a saab 9000 carlson, once you try it you will be converted.
150mph in silence with the aircon on reting your nearside elbow on the arm rest and enjoying your bum getting a gentle heat fromt he heated seats.
I WILL get another saab 9k. |

I had been looking at Saab's I'm too fussy lol don't like the dash. (how petty is that)
Prefered the red one too, too small a car for me but I still like em.
Had a look at a t4 volvo s40, quite alot of car for your money. Also thought about a mondy st24..... soooo many choices! |

9-3 is hideously ugly and crsap drive. The 9k was the last decent saab.
9-5 is pretty but isn't good to drive. |

That would be the one that I really hate the dash on, eeeeewwwwwwwww.
Gotta admit the idea of a Galant is far more appealing than anything else at the moment. |

I'm also a huge fan of the Galant!
A lot of the stuff thats used on the Galant is also used on the Evo |

I have always loved the VR4 galanrs. One race I won't forget, I was in my 1.4 19, nipping out for lunch when I was working with simon.
In front of me in the right lane a black vr4, in the left lane a fat arse GTO a car I have always hated, the worst slow car mitsi ever made. Might have 300 bhp but its slow. Anyway this galant humped it, repeatidly, as where it was there was liek 1/4 mile between lights. |
