This is my 1984 Saab 900. MaximumOverdrive's 1984 Saab 900

MaximumOverdrive's 1984 Saab 900


This car has a few minor problems, but nothing engine related. Its got some rust from road salt (it used to belong to a relative in Fargo, North Dakota). The springs fell out of the passenger seat, but that problem was solved by stuffing a pillow underneath it. It sits a bit low but provides better back support. Also one of the rear seatbelts snapped into the buckle and won't come out. Its been like that for a few years, so there ain't much chance of it coming on out. I am in the process of redoing the sound system. It came to me with a broken tape deck and 2 dashboard speakers that sound good. I have since replaced that with an aiwa cd player and am planning to order two 12 inch subs for the trunk to blast anyone next to me in traffic back to their non-Swedish car dealership. It's definetly the heaviest car in the driveway (steel frame, etc.), but it managed to pull off 45 mph in second gear at like 5000 rpm, and it doesn't hit max horsepower until 5800. I'd say thats somewhat respectable for a car with less than a lot of power. PURE SWEDISH MUSCLE BABY.

Your car has a great, nostalgic look to it. Come check out my 900S sedan sometime and tell me what you think.

your poll question is amusing because saabs are clearly better than volvos. my mum has a saab and it is a very nice car indeed. makes my lexus look pretty bad on the road too. come and check out my lex some time and tell us what u think. CYA
