codesplice's 2001 Saab 9-3

 

Thanks for stopping by my page. I've owned this car since November 2004. It's the second Saab I've owned (after having a 1984 900 until the spring of 2003) and the third Swedish car I've owned (after driving a 1996 Volvo 850 for several years). I bought it without ever thinking that I'd do anything but drive it, but I've fallen in love with the car, and I want to do whatever I can to make it even more fun to drive and show off. I like to think that I've accomplished that, and along the way, I have also built a formidable highway assault vehicle. I've got subtle styling, power and handling, and an ever-expanding array of electronic countermeasures (ECM) gear to help avoid any unpleasant confrontations.

I haven't updated this page in quite a while, so I'm going to embark upon a massive overhaul.  Stay tuned for changes and new developments on my Saab.  And thanks again for stopping by!

-John
